My point was in the demeanor of a politician specifically in the 10th congressional and 59th legislative districts. Have you ever seen the likes of a Porter, Kirk, Dold or even Sugrue go off on a rant? Their demeanor is more fitting of what the constituents expect in this neck of the woods.Footstepsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5194608964536238003.post-38629563813490292682011-08-18T13:51:36.432-05:002011-08-18T13:51:36.432-05:00As I thought, you're evading the issues.

They ferret out corruption and basically anything democrats do. <br /><br />Political watchers or observers are people that pay attention to the political comings, goings and soon to be happenings. While you sometimes dabble in the former, from my reading of this blog, you meant to say the latter. <br /><br />FWIW, angry politicians do do very well, heard of the tea party? Conservatives if they can stay focused on job creation and fiscal issues can probably make significant gains in Illinois next year and in the next few years. Save the immigration debate for later. <br /><br />FOKLAESAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5194608964536238003.post-61946245644294385232011-08-18T13:16:08.129-05:002011-08-18T13:16:08.129-05:00I know some Hispanics who oppose illegal aliens. ...I know some Hispanics who oppose illegal aliens.

What this tells me is you are probably prone to ranting and raving a little. If that is the case you have no clue of the constituents that you hope to represent. This will become an “Issue” and readily apparent standing next to a statesman like Mathias. The 59th district tends to be fairly independent minded.

Madigan’s goon squad worked him over pretty good and I am sure he still feels slighted for being passed over by Link. Buffalo Grove will be a battle ground and with Mathias in the race Sente can’t count on a big vote count. Mathias, Hartstein, and Stolman have been friends for ever. If I were Hartstein now that I am out of politics I would be looking for a little bit of revenge.Footstepsnoreply@blogger.com
