McKenna's admission proves he's not an "outsider"

McKenna’s admission proves he’s not an “outsider”

By Cao on 1/8/2010

But instead, an opportunist who, as party chair, was perfectly willing to exploit state party resources for his own political benefit.
The Party’s Central Committee concluded McKenna was in the wrong; so McKenna now says he’s sorry.
The new chairman, Pat Brady, says he takes McKenna at his word that any violation of the party’s spirit and [...]

McKenna Investigation; Proft releases redacted pages from poll run by ILGOP before McKenna resigned

McKenna Investigation; Proft releases redacted pages from poll run by ILGOP before McKenna resigned

By Cao on 12/15/2009

The news that McKenna is under investigation is long overdue; but McKenna still refuses to answer questions about the poll that was run using GOP money (and resources) to check the viability of his running as a statewide candidate.

Who’s the person that threatened to run against the much-loved incumbant, Senator Peter Fitzgerald, in 2004? Who is the person that led the Illinois Republican Party into an abyss over the past 4 1/2 years?

McKenna Blago Hair-fomercial a flop

McKenna Blago Hair-fomercial a flop

By Cao on 11/7/2009

Illinois’ problems are complex; Illinois voters expect the gubernatorial candidates to take them seriously. “Hair today” campaign blames Blago for our problems and that’s naive.

Republican Bill Cellini indicted for pay to play 1 year ago today; what say you, Junior?

Republican Bill Cellini indicted for pay to play 1 year ago today; what say you, Junior?

By Cao on 10/31/2009

One year ago today Illinois downstate Republican Bill Cellini was indicted by a federal grand jury in charges connected to Blagojevich.
Why talk about this now, you might ask? Because

Andy McKenna’s ad campaign for Governor came out on October 27, 2009-practically on the one-year anniversary of the Cellini indictment last October 31.

McKenna steals Adam’s “hold the line on taxes” line; and more-

By Cao on 10/30/2009

Junior’s campaign consultants are outdoing themselves and creating ample fodder for ridicule and laughter. Not to mention indigestion. After having received an email from McKenna’s campaign yesterday and then another already today, I think I need a TagametTM. One can’t help but chuckle over some of the narrative- brimming to the gills with [...]

Hair Today Gone Tomorrow - McKenna's TV ad

Hair Today Gone Tomorrow – McKenna’s TV ad

By Cao on 10/28/2009

This approach – of claiming to be an ‘outsider’ just brings all of their history in Illinois politics and being bedfellows with Chicago democrats clearer into focus.

What a devastatingly dumb PR move to call himself an “outsider” when he made that announcement that his campaign is official.

Pat Brady Opposes SB600 Reform (Video)

By Cao on 10/10/2009

A Taproot meeting showing Brady’s opposition to SB600. SB600 is the bill that would allow voters to decide who is on the Republican Central Committee. The Republican elite do not want to let go of their power which is why they must be booted out. Strange thing is, the democrats already have this right; why are the republicans resisting? Especially in today’s day and age.

Corrupt Illinois & Andy McKenna

By Cao on 7/10/2009

The title says it all. They prop up candidates that will do as they are told. Best thing you can do if you live in Illinois is vote for anyone BUT the candidate the Illinois Republican Party is presenting.

Andy McKenna Sr. at the White House in April

By Cao on 4/10/2009

Andy McKenna Sr. was in Washington DC in April, hobnobbing with his old friends from the good old boy network of the Chicago political elite. A good number of them were transported to the White House when Obama took office. It’s the Chicago way!
Senior attended the White House St. Patrick’s Day [...]
