8. I just got a door-hanger from Bailey yesterday.

It's crime, crime, crime, no cash bail for criminals, murders, and, oddly enough, shootings.

He is blaming Pritzker for the rise in shootings. Which is kind of rich.

Says here he's got endorsed by Fraternal Order of Police and Illinois Sheriffs' Association.

That will go a long way around here. Folks around here are law-and-order types. In principle.

They still have a Trump pick-up truck convoy every Friday night that runs down Main Street all the way out to the Wal-Mart. And people turn out for it. Like a parade, with a Lemon Ice and French Fry truck out there.

He's playing heavy in the fear factor, but it won't do him much good. Chicago will save us once again. Pritzker has a lock on this.

I just wish the Republicans like Bailey weren't so casual about damaging our communities. They are really screwing up the relationships, respect, and trust that make small towns work.

There truly are some very nice people who are just plain old rubes that believe whatever the guy in the fancy suit and the fancy hair tells them because that's the way they were raised. To say "Yes, sir!" to the boss and say "Hallelujah!" to the preacher.
