One suggestion: Learn how to write shorter sentences.

God forbid that a typical adult should be expected to comprehend a sentence of more than 10 words!

Talk about lowering the bar. We're not all George W. Bush-level intellects.

Rich Miller · 3 years ago

Um, that's not lowering the bar. That's decent grammar. I'm not the best, I admit it, but run-on sentences are a pet peeve.

another example of how rahm hasn't exactly shown sound strategic sense. (for those who don't recall, i've noted before that there cegelis partisans were being wooed by the scheurer. had cegelis won, you might -- might! -- have had a candidate as awful as duckworth, but at least bean would have been more secure. now *that's* bad judgment!)

Labor's taken leave of their senses.

Wumpus · 3 years ago

No, labor is acting like many of the Roeser Repulicans my way or the highway...perhaps you are right.

Cong. Bean being opposed by a few unions will help her in that district. It adds to her pro-business credentials.

If the unions defeat her, they will get what they have coming.

Defeat Bean, and get a national "right to work" law. Nice work, unions. Please aim directly at your own foot. We don't want anybody else getting hurt.

Without Bill Scheurer on the ballot, the fall election will be nothing more than Republican Primary Act 2. No one can credibly claim that Bean is anywhere close to being a real Democrat. That is why so many Republicans like her when compared to the extremism of McSweeney. Scheurer offers the only real choice in this election. It is too bad Democrats are resorting to GOP style dirty tricks to stop him.

The people who live in the 8th District and will bother to vote in November, will do so based on war, [so-called] family values, and abortion rights. Bean thus has the advantage, because she is pro-choice. That is just my opinion.

When are they going to switch voting day to Saturday, to see if that encourages more people to vote? Not that that would make much difference in the lousy choices.
