"ARE YOU READY FOR THE FIGHT!?"

Hell yes, I am!

As much as I would hate to lose him as my governor, I am warming up to the idea of him running for president. This is exactly the kind of fighting spirit we need right now, and I think Pritzker may be just the kind of person we need to inspire Democrats and carry our message to all the independent and undecided voters. If he runs, I will work my ass off for him to get the nomination and then take back the White House!

P.S. He's 60 now and will be 63 in 2028. Is that young enough for all the people who keep complaining about Dem leadership being too old? I sure hope so.

that we could lose him to D.C. We still do need him here, but the country may need him more. He did turn this state around financially. The country will need the same thing after the mess trump is making.

He will have to figure out how to handle political food. He is too overweight. That is not good. I have noticed the weight gain since he became serious about politics. I know firsthand how the political food can get to someone.
