Rauner??? Are you kidding me? Rauner? [View all]

Do we want to send another governor to jail? I know it is traditional here, but really. The guy is already a crook.

Why bother to inaugurate him if he wins? Just put him in jail. Go to jail. Go directly to jail. Do not pass go. Do not spend $200 million dollars on court costs, lawyers' fees, or ink, or Internet advertising. Just put him in jail and save the state a lot of time and money.
