CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Sanguinetti blasts Ives big time.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-bruce-rauner-jeanne-ives-20180206-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And Rauner’s running mate Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti separately called the spot “offensive and disgusting.” “I was just taken aback. I don’t think it speaks to policies at all, I just think it’s offensive to individuals,” Sanguinetti said. Sanguinetti and Ives briefly served together on the Wheaton City Council before Ives entered the Illinois House and Sanguinetti later became lieutenant governor. Sanguinetti said she and Ives are “not friends.” “The Jeanne Ives that you folks are seeing in that commercial, that sort of spirit, is the same Jeanne Ives that I have known for the last seven to eight years,” Sanguinetti said. “I saw it from the dais, I’ve seen it in my community and now all of you are getting a taste of it, and I’m hopeful that that will be rejected.”)
— Pritzker apologizes for remarks on African-American politicians, as rivals say he’s now unelectable – Rick Pearson, John Byrne and Monique Garcia (DIERSEN: What facts do your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that make you unelectable? My critics/opponents stress that I am no longer a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, GAO employee, etc. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if I had any kind of support, I would still hold the aforesaid positions. Further, they stress that unlike Rich Miller, no one pays me for my emails and my website contains no advertising.)

— Rauner gets backing over Ives from Cook County Republicans
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-bruce-rauner-jeanne-ives-cook-county-20180207-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Cook County was important in the 2014 Republican governor primary, when Rauner prevailed by more than 27,000 votes over his nearest competitor, then-state Sen. Kirk Dillard. Rauner won the nomination by fewer than 24,000 votes statewide. Though the county is a Democratic stronghold in statewide elections, it also had the most Republican primary voters in Illinois that year. More than 168,000 people in Cook County voted for a GOP candidate for governor in the 2014 primary. Compare that to a little more than 92,000 in DuPage County, traditionally home turf for Republicans. (It’s also the home county of Dillard and Ives. Last time, Rauner won there too. The March 20 primary election’s dynamics are different this time, of course — it’s a one-on-one battle instead of a four-candidate field. . .Ives’ campaign put out a statement late Tuesday noting the candidate’s numerous collar county GOP township endorsements. “The taxpayers will defeat Rauner in March, the Democrats in November. And they will do that behind the charge of Rep. Jeanne Ives,” the statement read in part. The Cook endorsement announcement came as Rauner’s campaign for the first time unveiled a TV ad attacking Ives. In response, Ives called him “an unrepentant liar.”)

CHAMPAIGN/URBANA NEWS GAZETTE
— Ives’ strategist Dan Proft backing more than one horse – Tom Kacich (DIERSEN: I should write a book about “Republican” strategists who demonize me, who denigrate me, and who condemn me a) because I do not glorify and praise them, b) because I do not pander to them, c) because they cannot manipulate/dominate me, d) because I refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, and/or e) because I refuse to give them money. They blame me for all of their problems, for all of your problems, for all of my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems. They blame me for all losses that Republicans have suffered in Illinois since 2000. They will blame me for every vote that Ives/Morthland and Rauner/Sanguinetti get or do not get in the March 20, 2018 primary election.)
http://www.news-gazette.com/news/local/2018-02-07/tom-kacich-ives-strategist-backing-more-one-horse.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Speaking of Ives Her appearance Saturday night in Champaign drew a crowd of about 50 people, none of whom included her Republican legislative colleagues from East Central Illinois. None of them has endorsed her, and it may be because she doesn’t spare anyone with her criticism. Take this example where she hit both Rauner and the 15 House Republicans who joined with Democrats last year to pass a state budget and end a long impasse. “You can make deals, but you cannot adjust and continually cave. He caved to pressure on the education bill. He caved to pressure on the budget bill,” Ives said of Rauner. “He made not a single phone call to get Republicans to hold off on that permanent 32 percent tax increase. He owns that tax increase. He caved, as did many of my colleagues. Many of them have been taken control of by lobbyists. It’s frightening down there. Frightening.” The only past or present Republican officeholders I saw at the Ives function were Savoy Mayor Joan Dykstra, Champaign County Board member Jim McGuire, Parkland College Board member Greg Knott and former county board member Scott Tapley, who is coordinating the Ives campaign in Champaign County. Ives also said the “entire Democratic ticket is like a bunch of socialists. They picked out the most extreme in terms of that. We think we have a fighting chance in this state to get out that message.” The most socially conservative candidate for governor since at least 2010, Ives insisted she can win in the fall. “When it comes to November, the reason we win is because my message is universal, and I can back it up with real bills and real action I’ve taken on the most critical issues in the state of Illinois which are property taxes, the tax burden overall and public corruption,” she said. Also, she knows how to pick up free publicity. Ives has spent little money on broadcast television in the Champaign-Decatur-Springfield market (just $13,948 at WCIA, according to records), but she got lots of free coverage earlier this week from her controversial TV ad attacking Rauner for his support of legislation benefiting transgender individuals, undocumented immigrants, abortion rights and funding for Chicago schools. “We’re happy to have them chatter among the media to raise my name i.d.,” she said. “Go ahead. Love it.”)
