The Trib has Dillard ahead in the Repub Governor primary. I know Dillard. Shared an office building with his state senator’s in-district office, Rep Patti Bellock’s office (trivia, Patti is a Comisky, and her office is chock full of White Sox memorabilia), and the local Chamber – that was it, not a terribly big building. So not many of us in there. Once I watched Dillard and staff do a stellar job of manoevering every which way through the state legislature on an issue I was quite familiar with. He’s well-liked, well-respected, and well-connected.<\/p>\n
Update: Brady pulls ahead of Dillard. Still a ridiculously tight race, but then so is the Quinn\/Hynes matchup<\/p>\n
For Quinn’s sake, I fear Dillard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
