Adam Andrzejewski is the Best Choice for Governor. Yes, he is new to politics and has not run for office before. That is a very good thing this year and especially here in Illinois. The political environment here is corrupt and self-serving as demonstrated by former Gov Ryan (R) in jail and former Gov Blagojevich (D) indicted and probably heading to jail. We have been for years now dealing with pay-to-play politics by both parties. It is time for a clean break from the past and Adam is a breath of fresh air undisturbed by the stench of corruption filling this state.
Many other Tea Party groups in the state have joined the fight and are working to elect Adam. In a recent straw poll of tea party leaders, Adam won 97% of the vote: http://www.illinoistea.org/.
From another Tea Party Group
TEA party members all over the state have worked hard to help Adam only to meet with some NASTY press from local radio, state newspapers, TV and now massive campaign sign stealing. http://www.examiner.com/x-17412-Macon-County-Conservative-Examiner~y2010m1d26-RINOs-mount-underhanded-campaign-against-Andrzejewski

Please go over to Cao’s Blog and take a look at her post on the Sandy Cole mailer attacking her opponent Paul Mitchell.
The cartoons are really well done and shows Sandy really can’t handle the truth about her actual voting record.
Paul Mitchell is the best candidate for State Representative in the 62nd District. We wholeheartedly suport his campaign and beliefs. He is Pro-Life, Pro-Family, Pro-Individual, Pro-Freedom. He supports the Republican platform and does not run away from him it like his opponent. He understands the state has a spending problem, not a revenue problem.
If you want to find out more about Paul Mitchell, visit his Website at http://paulfor62.com, on Twitter or Facebook.
You can also listen to Paul this afternoon on the Sandy Rios Show on WYLL.

The following statement was just posted to Twitter and Facebook by the Patrick Hughes campaign and he is claiming his first campaign contribution check in 2010 will be to a Big Government Democrat:
No, seriously, my first check of 2010 is going to Bart Stupak who may have just declared open war. http://is.gd/5ueUt Balls. Of. Steel.
For those of you who do not know who Rep. Stupak is, he is the author of the amendment not allowing tax payer dollars to be used for abortion. That amendment allowed HR 3962 (Obamacare) to pass the House. This bill still contained the Public Option and the government takeover of our healthcare system. Stupak is a big government Democrat who also voted for the Stimulus Bill that only stimulated government growth.
Why would Patrick Hughes think it is a good idea to give money to a Big Government Democrat that supports the government takeover of our healthcare system? How can he claim to even be a conservative? What real principles does Patrick Hughes stand for? Why should anyone support a candidate who wants to help keep big government politicians in office?
It is time for a Contract With Illinois. Pledge to vote only for those candidates who stand up for the Constitution. Ask your friends, neighbors and other candidates throughout the state to do the same. It is time we stop electing fake conservatives.
UPDATE: The Hughes campaign has now posted the following apologies on twitter and facebook.
Explanation posted on his website: http://www.patrickhughesforsenate.com/site/Viewer.aspx?iid=25411&mname=Article&rpid=6794
Tweet 1:
That last tweet was not from me. It was placed in my Twitter stream by accident. I do not intend to give money to any Democrats!
Tweet 2:
@davesmith3 Sorry. Lines got crossed somewhere and a tweet was placed into my stream from another account. I oppose Obamacare. All of it.
Tweet 3:
Again, I want to say that somehow my account feed crossed with a different account last night. Bart Stupak will not get a check from me ever
Tweet 4:
I’ve posted a longer explanation about our mix up last night on my blog, http://tiny.cc/KKzyF I hope this helps clear things up

I would like to formally announce the support of Lake County Tea Party for Joe Walsh. Joe is the best candidate in the race to fire Melissa Bean. He is conservative and like us, has had enough of the over spending, the bailouts and the wholesale ignoring of our Constitution.
I would ask each of you to join us in supporting Joe Walsh. Come out and join Joe Walsh tonight at his Christmas rally!!
If you have “HAD ENOUGH” with the direction our country is heading, please join me for a WALSH CHRISTMAS RALLY!
Together we can plan the next 6 weeks to win on February 2nd to take the challenge to Melissa Bean in November 2010.
When: Thursday, December 17, 2009 Where: Hackney’s Restaurant
880 N. Old Rand Rd.
Lake Zurich, IlTime: 5:30P – 9:00P Program: Joe Walsh to speak at 6:30P
(Free soft drinks & munchies, cash bar for beer/liquor)This is an Open House event. Bring family, friends, neighbors who have “Had Enough”. Come join “Boots on the Ground” to volunteer for the next 6 weeks and election day.
Update: The toll free number is owned by Families USA. They are redirecting the number to the Capitol Hill switchboard after their push for Obamacare.
I just received this email and called myself. The switchboard operator didn’t know why this was happening. I asked to be forwarded to Melissa Bean’s office. I could not leave a message, her box was full.
RED ALERT - The White House is campaigning on the Capital Hill Switchboard Line — Patriot Action Needed Now - PATRIOT CENTRAL - 090926 A
Shut it down with calls and let it ring over to the switchboard personnel and tell them what you think of it.
I am sick of O and him continuing to campaign using tax payer money and abusing his privileges. How can anyone trust or respect anyone in this “dis-administration.”
===
This is from a patriot.Subject: Important: Lawyers out there…Is this legal? Bi-partisan switchboard at work
Was going to bed when I read this message and wanted to pass it on. I have already been on twitter and sent Dick Armey, John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Glenn Beck, Michelle Malkin, etc a tweet about it so will be interested to see if any reply that they knew about it.
Call 800.828.0498 and listen to the message on the capital hill switchboard. Then, share this with everyone…call the papers, tv stations and all your reps…who put the message on there? Isn’t this against the law. Aren’t they supposed to show some form of ethics. What if Bush were president and the message was keep bombing them until they convert or die?
They are definitely pushing it.
Marathon Pundit is reporting that Mark Kirk will be voting no on the Cap and Trade Bill if it comes back from the Senate for reconciliation.
Patriot Room’s Clyde Middleton asked if the reconciled bill could fail to be approved the House. McCarthy replied, “There’s a very good chance of that. Mark Kirk, who was one of eight (Republicans) who voted for it…he now says if the bill comes back to the floor, he’s not going to vote for it.”
Keep up the pressure folks. Cap and tax is a tax on everyone who uses electricity. Pressure Melissa Bean as well, this bill is bad for businesses and will increase everyone energy bills.
UPDATES:
- The person confronting a protester was the Lake Zurich Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, Dale Perrin and not it’s President as I was originally told. Corrected below as well.
- Another report from attendee Rob Watson
- Confirmed that forcing everyone to move their cars was a political move; it was during this time that the ABC 7 News crew came out to video the protest.
- Daily Herald Story
- Coverage from other blogs
I attended the Melissa Bean protest this morning outside the Lake Zurich Chamber of Commerce breakfast. For those of you who aren’t aware, this was the event sponsored by the Lake Zurich Chamber of Commerce where only members could attend and only if they paid $25. We decided a protest was in order since Rep. Bean is avoiding her constituents. Even her tele-townhall excluded many constituents.
When I arrived, the police were arriving as well. They told us we could not park in the Banquet Hall parking lot, even though it was nearly empty. They sent us down to the Brunswick Zone parking lot to park. As I was moving my car, I noticed someone yelling at one of the other protesters. Unfortunately was unable to get video of the exchange. I later found out that it was the Chamber of Commerce President Executive Director Dale Perrin who was upset we were there.
There were about 25 people protesting the government takeover of our healthcare and just under 15 promoting big government healthcare. Pictures are below. Notice, the pre-made signs from the Union members and other big government supporters. They had only 1 homemade sign.
The police presence was overkill, there were 12 Kildeer police at the Banquet facilities including the Chief who provided this information. In addition, I asked him was their presence there because of the Banquet Hall paying for their services or were they there for security. His response was for security. I do have to say, all the Officers were very polite to us all. They were willing to tell us where we could park when asking us to leave the Hall parking lot. They also came out and informed both sides that the Brunswick Zone wanted all vehicles moved or they would start towing vehicles. They again told us a place to park.
I will be contacting the Brunswick Zone in Kildeer and their corporate headquarters about this. They did not open until 9 am. I passed by the Zone at 10 am, when leaving, and they appeared to have only about hall their parking lot filled. I believe telling us to move was politically motivated. It happened around 8:30 and about half the people on our side left at that point. The pro big government side continued to have about 10 people. Which at the end of the event we found out why.
Melissa Bean did not stop to speak with any of us protesting. She did wave at both sides as she left with someone driving here away. The big government protesters immediately packed up their signs at left at this point. Many protesters on our side stayed and continued to hold signs for the businessmen leaving the event.
Several of the big government had been allowed to park in the Hall’s parking lot. One car appeared to have a Chamber attendee present in the car, but one car with a couple protesters did not (Video below).
Both the Daily Herald and Pioneer Press interviewed both sides of the debate. ABC News 7 was there, but only attended the event inside. They did not speak to any protester.

Come out and join the protest of Melissa Bean this Wednesday. Rep. Bean is again selectively ducking her constituents. This healthcare event is by paid fee only in front of the Lake Zurich Area Chamber of Commerce.
She did finally schedule a tele-townhall but that also was a failure. It appeared she again selectively chose who she called and who got to ask a question. Why is Melissa Bean continuing to not talk to all the citizens of the 8th district.
