How bad is Alan Keyes getting beat in Illinois?
Somebody stole his abortion video, so he doesn't have a platform to run on.

(From a "Reagan Republican" I talk to. (Not the same guy who trashed Dumbya's debate performance though.))

This is probably worth it's own thread, but today, when asked why people should vote for him, even though he is an outsider and not from illinois, he said "If Jesus came to Illinois to run for the Senate, would you call him an outsider?". The reporters on the news were openly making fun of him:) He is a lunatic.

4. There are a whole bunch of Keyes signs lined up
at the side of the roads in/near my town. :( Surprised the hell out of me first time I saw them. It's the only thing I REALLY miss about living in the city, I knew living in the northern burbs would mean less liberal neighbors, but KEYES supporters?! We aren't THAT far removed from Chicago!

7. That is one scary 24 percent.
Amazing that he's getting that much. They really come out of the woodwork when the political temperature is right.

RTP.

10. You're seeing how many people would vote straight republican in Illinois.
Because Little Baby Jesus is a Republican. It wouldn't matter if it's Alan Keyes or Hitler.

9. Alan Keyes is the best
possible opposition to Obama. Actually i think Mr Barack will do better running against an insane jerk like Keyes than if he had ran unopposed:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

11. Keyes is doing so well, Obama's campaigning in other states
for other democratic candidates.

is that Obama gets 70% of the vote. That would be great!

14. The CNN American Morning is in Chicago this week and
Solidad interviewed the moran yesterday. She asked him why he thought he had a chance of winning since he's 48 points down in the polls and he went on to spew his abortion bullshit rhetoric and some other crap on other issues. She actually giggled and said, "But you're 48 points down in the polls!" He said that he thinks the people of Illinois will elect him. Bwahahahahahahahaha! WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER, ALAN! The man is obviously deranged. I'm surrounded by Bush yard signs and some of those people also have Obama signs next to their Bush signs. Then, we have the people who have no brains or pride and have Keyes signs in their yards! Idiots.
