I just saw an ad for the leading Dem contender for governor. Not only does he have the silly sounding last name of Pritzker, not only is he morbidly obese as if to evoke the image of fat cat billionaires, not only is he a yet another clueless stinky rich guy, he is also phenomenally uncharismatic.
Rauner is very unpopular in the state right now. All we need to get rid of him is a candidate who represents true Dem values. Somebody who doesn’t look completely ridiculous surrounded by welders and school teachers like Pritzker does in this risible ad. Somebody who is a little less entitled.
Jeez.
I just found an ad on youtube….. brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Someone needs to tell him to stop shaking his head as he talks about all the great things he’s gonna do…. kind of ruins the effect (only if he stumbles into the nomination maybe that can keep him from winning)
you weren’t kidding on the ‘no charisma’ front, he makes Hillary seem like Oprah in comparison.
Poor illinoisians… illinoisites what do you call yourselves?

And what’s the argument going to be? Don’t vote for that clueless rich guy, vote for this clueless rich guy?

Please note that NJ Dems nominated a guy from Goldman Sacks and rolled with him. He’s being inaugurated tomorrow. The Pritzkers made a fortune in chemicals/pharma, then sold the business and endowed a science building at UChicago.

Pharma. The real blood money. It wouldn’t be any worse if it was tobacco.

Vote for Biss in the primary! His chances are slim, but we have to at least try. Even the Kennedy kid would be a step up from this jackass.

Absolutely. I so hope he gets trashed in the primaries.
