    == I know you’ll agree with me that we’d be much better off if he [John McCain] were president today. ==

    Sen. Dillard is flip-flopping like a fish out of water.

    Moreover, I'd love for him to explain to the public how "we" would be much better off if John McCain were President right now.

    I hope some gutsy reporter calls him and gets an answer to that question.

    YDD simple, we would anger and attack even more countries justtifying larger and greater combat abroad; and Haliburotn would flourish making insane amounts of money.

    Oh and we would probably be deregualting banks even more following McCains soltion to the savings and loan collapse which has served us so well.

    Dillard will do a great job as Gov. In the General Election, people will like the Obama ad as a new approach for politics. The right wing in the primary now has a conservative can win!

    i love how dillard is a conservative-or a moderate--depending on the day of the week...and if he is a conservative, then what seperates himself from the other conservatives in the race?

    Why did Dillard get invited to Obama's inauguration? It's not because of how great a McCain supporter he was. It's one thing to say nice things in an interview or story about a guy. It is quite another thing to record a paid campaign ad for Obama.

    It doesn't take much of a Google search to find many instances of Dillard's glowing praise for Obama, even after the election.

    Again, Dillard is a classic Springfield politician- will say what someone wants to hear.

    Dillard tapes an Obama commercial and then insists he was loyal to McCain. It is different for sure, but not the kind of change we can believe in.

    DCFS is talking about 50:1 caseloads and the comments are only on Dillard? Let's not add to the impression that these scenarios aren't real. Non-profits who contract with the state are running up to the end of their fiscal year. They can't afford to keep people on the payroll because some people don't think this doomsday budget will come to pass. This is real.
