Illinois 12 is a toss up on Real clear politics now

[The Polack MSgt]

Looks like Bost is losing his grip on voters out in the corn.

In related news, a canvasser for Kelly came through my neighborhood the other day. That means in the 13 years I've lived in that house, he was the second Democratic canvasser to ever visit.

The first was just 6 weeks ago, when the district was listed as "likely Repub" - so I'm hopeful

I have a Kelly for congress sign in my yard now BTW

1. IL-13th maybe in toss-up range now too as Londrigan has energized the voters while Davis

hides from them

2. We can hope.

The GOP shitshow goes on every day, sooner or later even Republicans have to notice.

3. really not republicans that matter, the democrats are fired up AND angry

Davis is in trouble because he doesn't serve his constituents, too afraid to do town halls. Its so bad that a "likely republican hold" is now teetering on "tossup[" and GOP superPacs are throwing big $$$$ into the race as Davis is failing so bad in raising money.

No official polling has happen or released but talking with Betsy's people, they are very pleased at where they are at (without releasing internal polling)

4. I'll never hold my breath waiting for them to wake up

But I'm hooing a lot of repubs stay home in disgust

5. In Illinois, a republican voter has no reason to get out and vote, rauner is toast

no Senator up for re-election. The down ballot fear is justified as Illinois GOP is totally unenthused. This makes the likelihood of flipping 2,3,4,5 GOP congressional seats even MORE likely.

8. Rauner Was Down 16 Points In The Last Couple Polls I Saw

6. Illinois Policy on Facebook

All they do is talk about leaving Illinois. I like to encourage them.

They are pathetic.

7. I've seen some of their memes

They should leave since they seem to believe only Illinois taxes things - so move yo ass to one of those no tax heavens you talk about.


BTW, one of the main reasons I stay in Illinois is the tax break I get here - because Illinois doesn't tax pensions

9. I Worked A Phone Bank For Kelly Tonight

The response was pretty positive.

I'm gonna volunteer a couple evenings a week through the election.
