I really think that you need to clear this up with your readers.Nick Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-11023243980559829482006-01-05T18:00:59.000-06:002006-01-05T18:00:59.000-06:00Good job describing Oberweis and his qualification...Good job describing Oberweis and his qualifications for office.Jim from Souith Elginnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-41172712906972395892005-12-31T10:18:17.000-06:002005-12-31T10:18:17.000-06:001.

Oberweiss is also close with Denny Hastert a consumate RINO insider who tried to get rid of Sen Fitzgerald (R) and also US Attorney Fitzgerald.<br>2. Oberweiss will lose to Blagojevich badly if he is the nominee and spell final defeat for Republicans in Illinois for about a generation.Frannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-16264086046554194172005-12-30T07:32:12.000-06:002005-12-30T07:32:12.000-06:00Greg,Though none of the candidates are perfect, I ...Greg,<br><br>Though none of the candidates are perfect, I take issue with this idea that Oberweis can't help the party - even if he fails to beat Blago.<br><br>He is campaigning on the Republican Platform, which at least stands for more than Topinka.<br><br>You can't call some one "conservative" and then say they have no ideas. My advice would be to call the campaign and ask Oberweis to come to your house for a coffee. (invite 5-10 neighbors)<br><br>Too few of us understand how accessible these folks are.

It is to bad that there isn't a candidate out there who can bring everyone into the party. Because Oberweis and Topinka are the worst possible candidates for the growth of the party... in my opinion... Topinka has a name, Oberweis has money... Are there any real ideas from either of them???Greg Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-31850013861031918092005-12-29T15:47:26.000-06:002005-12-29T15:47:26.000-06:00Salvi's poll shows similar numbers.Salvi's poll shows similar numbers.Tednoreply@blogger.com
