MCHENRY COUNTY BLOG
— GOP State Chairman Don Tracy’s Advice to Bond County Lincoln Dinner Attendees (COMMENT: Concerning #4 below, ever-increasingly, to get votes from moderates and from liberals, the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) paints itself as being “Democrat-lite” and dumps conservatives. Concerning #5 below, ever-increasingly, to get votes from moderates and from liberals, the IRP paints itself as being “Democrat-lite” and dumps the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Concerning #6 and #7 below, ever-increasingly, to get votes from moderates and from liberals, the IRP paints itself as being “Democrat-lite” and attacks and destroys conservatives. Concerning #10 below, I spend 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out. I should write a book about those anti-conservative and conservative-hating IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization leaders who have done the most since 2000 a) to stop me from putting those newsletters together and sending them out and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. I would focus on those leaders who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Republicans cannot govern Illinois without winning statewide. 2. Republicans cannot win statewide without winning the Chicago suburbs. [70% of Illinois voters live within eyesight of Willis Tower.] 3. We cannot win the suburbs without winning over swing voters. [Only 33% of Illinois voters are Republicans; 47% are Democrats; 20% are swing voters.] 4. Winning politics is about addition not subtraction. 5. The perfect is the enemy of the good, which is why someone who agrees with you 80% of the time is an ally not an enemy. 6. We cannot defeat our common foe – the Democrat socialists – unless we avoid attacking each other and unite to work together collectively. 7. Calling fellow Republicans names like RINOs, Never Trumpers, right-wingers,
extremists or ultra MAGAs violates the 11th Commandment and will not influence or persuade swing voters and their friends and families to vote Republican in the general election. [Democrats don’t call other Democrats DINOs, etc.] 8. With socialism on the march, good government can no longer be taken for granted; and we cannot defeat the socialists from the sidelines or by hoping someone else will do that for us. 9. Politics is a team sport. If you are not already in the game, get off the sidelines and help the Republican Party and our good candidates. 10. If you have time but no money, we need your time. If you have money but no time, we need your money. If you have neither time nor money, we need your prayers.)

THE HILL
— Democrats say “Trump discourages DeSantis, says candidacy would ‘only hurt’ Republican Party.” I should write a book about what the anti-conservative and conservative-hating leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party did to me to defeat me when I ran for its open MTRO Treasurer position in 2004. They blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for Jim Ryan’s defeat in 2002. They hated TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and hated the Illinois Center Right Coalition and the leadership roles that I held in those organizations. Because I would have started MTRO to use budgets if I was elected, they brought in two CPAs to speak against budgeting. They said that I irritated everyone around me and that I was not a team player. I lost 69 to 13.
