So it looks like the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) might be abandoning Jim Oberweis.
Read this story in the Friday edition of the Daily Herald.
To the NRCC: Thanks so much, but don't let the door hit you in the *** on the way out. I think Jim could have done without their help to begin with. Between their annoying "robo-calls" and bad campaign mailings it seems they probably did MUCH MORE harm than good.
Do they sense blood in the water, are they conceding the 14th Congressional District to the Democrats, or are they just weak in the knees and just don't have the stomach for what will be a good old fashioned political battle (hopefully a much better tone this time) for this coveted seat?
Maybe Oberweis needs some actual POSITIVE ads with Republicans that people like--yes, there are people like that out there. How about Jim Edgar for example. And again, Denny Hastert--enjoy your retirement, but no thanks to any more "help" from you. No insult intended, but enjoy your "retirement" with your lobbyist friends.
Whatever it is, perhaps Jim Oberweis should say adios to the NRCC who probably weren't too helpful anyway. Readers: any suggestions?
