Kirk is an unelectable liberal clown, who cannot win because he’ll get 0 support from conservatives.

He has a 55% ACU lifetime rating — i.e., he votes with the GOP only 55% of the time — and his ratings the past two years have been 48 and 40. He’s a liberal; there is not anything even remotely conservative about this fairy.

He has actually voted:

- Against the Iraq War “surge”,
- Against the partial birth abortion ban (yes, really),
- For Crap and Tax,
- For all manner of gun and ammunition bans, even sponsoring the assault weapons joke/ban,
- For illegal alien amnesty.

He has a 100% rating from the teachers unions.

You are obviously a partisan Republican who doesn’t care about policy. I’m not. I’m a conservative, and Kirk will never get my vote.

[...] “Republicans” who voted for the cap and “tax” bill are: Mary Bono Mack (CA), Mike Castle (DE), Mark Kirk (IL), John McHugh (NY), Frank LoBiondo (NJ), Leonard Lance (NJ), Dave Reichert (WA), and Chris Smith (NJ). Let them know we are watching them, and we need them on our side. [...]

The last Republican senator from IL was PETER (not Patrick) Fitzgerald, who was driven from the IL GOP, as he wouldn’t “play ball” with the money guys (Fitzgerald has his own and did not need theirs)

Whoops. Quite right about Fitzgerald. Odd that I completely forgot about him.

bribing 535 lawyer/politicians is way easier and cheaper than getting john q public to eat an excrement sandwich and pay for it too.

As a former Illinoian, I really disagree with Kirk over “Cap and Tax”, but he would a great improvement over almost any (except for Paul Vallas) Dem who would replace Burriss. 50% of something is better than 100% of nothing.

There are other people running for the Senate seat. With all due respect, at least mentioning their names could help.

Moaning about Kirk only gives him name recognition.

Go ahead. Turn the Limbaugh attack dogs on a successful member of the Republican party. Destroy his political career. Make sure a Democrat gets elected to represent his district. It turns out global warming denial is good for something after all.

I worked for the Al Salvi(remember him) campaign back in 1996.
I’m an election judge so I won’t change my party affliation-but if Kirk is the nominee I WILL skip over that race.
