To Ogien,

I appreciate that you would vote for Adam if you could. I am a fan of Peter Schiff's facebook page because he was right all along in the past when the media doubted him. I hope he wins the Senate seat.

Tom

I read up on him just now and I do like some of his political views. :-)

And your right to bear arms doesn't protect you anyway, as a member of PF had to find out the hard way just recently.

I don't know what you're talking about with that particular member of PF but I have actually protected my family and property three times as I mentioned already thanks to guns.

From what I read, he didn't have a gun to protect himself. Also, the guys who attacked him were unlicensed gun carriers.

Bad example of what you're trying to prove mate.

To Rob and others:

His endorsement is tomorrow. I'm sorry if I wrote the wrong day, it's Tuesday, tomorrow at 11 a.m. I already know who it is but I am leaving the surprise for everyone else. I'll tell you he has been in Illinois politics and was a big figure in the initial Governor's election in 2002. This man received over 260,000 votes. The reason you see McKenna, Ryan, and Dillard running ads is because they are trying to buy the election. But we have something stronger that they don't: A statewide ground campaign. We have the best "ground troops" across the state. Adam is doing well in all of rural Illinois. He's also doing great in those democratic districts as I mentioned before. If you talk to fellow Polish friends, that's how we can win this.

Also, we have been heard across the state on radio, so listen to WLS or other stations in Chicago. Our ads have been running for months. We may have one final t.v. ad in the coming weeks. By the way, there was a debate Sunday. McKenna and Ryan didn't show up for it, because they think they own the state, also, the press didn't show up either.... Interesting!!!

ENDORSEMENT:

Patrick O'Malley, part of the former great Senator of Illinois Patrick Fitzgerald's group. He ran against Jim Ryan in the primary in 2002 but came up behind Ryan, getting over 260,000 votes. He was the 18th district state senator, which covers Peoria and Pekin, IL, and many other neighboring counties cutting into Central/Western Illinois. Here is his bio and a few links:

Bravo! Keep up the work Adam Andrzejewski and let's get out the vote for February 2nd!!!

That's the official announcement of Walesa's visit. The event is strictly a fundraiser, funded by those who buy a ticket to the event. It will be an honor and let's keep the momentum up! If Massachusetts and New Jersey could lead a grassroots effort to bring good government back, then we can surely do that with Adam's campaign. God Bless!

So...endorsement by a loser hardly is much of an endorsement, is it? How much did Adam pay for that, $10?

A fundraiser to pay Walesa, yes.

Robert,

Polls conducted in the 3rd and 5th district showed Adam well ahead in the GOP race. If people aren't doing research besides sitting and looking at a t.v. screen, they would know about all the candidates. Point is, Adam has the best chance against Democrats in the general election. I don't care what anyone says about Walesa but I think it's an honor to have a former Polish President to come here to Chicago. Adam is much needed in our Governorship and we have to ensure our fellow Polish will hit the polls Feb. 2nd.

It is man, people just joke around here all the time. Walesa is still famous and admired in the US.

I say whatever anyone believes, this election is crucial for our state. Just in today, Pro-Choice candidate Bob Schillerstrom dropped out and supported Jim Ryan, but I don't think this will help him, instead can hurt him. We can make this grassroots effort work just as Scott Brown experienced in Massachusetts. Adam is gaining popularity and has broad support in rural Illinois.



delphiandomine:

You continue to criticize his campaign, but you have no idea who O'Malley is, do you?

Dan Proft worked for his campaign in 2002, that's a slap in the face to him. He's an opponent of Jim Ryan (obviously) who has considered tax hikes and accepted Schillerstrom's endorsement (the only pro-choice candidate in the race)

He worked with Bill Brady and Kirk Dillard (another mushy moderate) in the state legislature but chose Adam above all. He received nearly a quarter million votes in that primary. That's a big deal and his supporters will back Adam. This strengthens Adam's progress in Cook County.

Scott Brown won on a fiscally conservative platform. Might want to stick to that in order to avoid alienating potential voters.

Mainly because most Americans don't know the first thing about what Walesa did other than "opposed communists, got Nobel Peace Prize, became President". They certainly don't know that he's been selling endorsements to anyone that pays him enough money!

It's a shame that someone of the stature of Walesa has dropped to the point where he's endorsing people for money in the race for the governor of some random state in America.

Adam is the only conservative candidate in this race! Please do research before making assumptions. Now he has 5 other opponents, including Ryan, Dillard, and McKenna, who all oppose 2nd Amendment rights as well as have considered tax hikes in the past. Adam is a fierce opponent of patronage politicians and business-as-usual politicians. If you were involved, you would know how popular he is around the state.

delphiandomine:
I'm really not sure why the joker on this thread keeps denying that Walesa is coming to Chicago in exchange for a nice chunk of money

Continue to believe what you think, you don't know who I am, and obviously you fail to do any homework for this race. I am not on here to brag about Walesa, OK. But this state faces many budget issues and Adam's the only candidate who will forensic audit our state's spending by executive power. None of the other candidates want Illinoians to see where money is being spent. There is so much graft, fraud, and corruption and while we continue to fight against it, you can continue to be negative.

You're a campaign staffer, that much is certain. You're also a member of the Christian Right, that particularly loathesome breed of American. You're also more than likely one of the "100% POLISH BLOOD" type - who knows the square root of nothing about Poland.

As for this race - I couldn't care less about the election for the governor of Illinois. All I know is that your man has paid a significant amount of money to Lech Walesa to bring him to Chicago to obtain a few cheap Polish-American votes.

It's difficult to brag about Walesa when the man has so many faults!

Perhaps you might want to explain why your man has plans to withhold a huge amount of money from local communities - over 1.2 billon in fact? Given that he's talking about local accountability and how State-level control is evil (his criticism of the State controlling local education was particularly scathing) - why is he also looking to decimate muncipality budgets?

(and heck, Andrzejewski is so Polish that his wife doesn't even have a proper last name!)

Well, you're a limey so of course everyone is a buffoon compared to you, right? And if you remember the mid - late 80's opposing the Soviets took a little guts. Who cares if Lech makes an appearance profit. Bill Clinton sure as hell does. Tony Blair definitely does. Nobody bi/tches about them doing it.

I doubt if many people in the UK know much about Walesa's post 1989 career either.

No-one's denying this.

They aren't so stupid or greedy as to endorse politicians for money, though. Walesa embracing a fiscal conservative is especially hilarious given his previous support for Libertas and even more hilarious given his past as head of Solidarity!

low eight figures in dollars, in a couple of years, that'll be comfortably middle class by European standards.

One man's spam is another man's info resource. Nobody is forcing you to watch the "spam". You apparently are against this Adam fellow, which is all fair and good...always good to have an opposing view.

You're walking on thin ice here. Following your argumentation, PF would also have to allow spam from MLM's and the like (which they don't, thankfully).

Actually, I don't even care whether he's a Republican or Democrat. What really annoys me is that this wannabe governor seems to be so arrogant to believe that all Americans of Polish descent in Illinois are plain stupid and do not understand why Walesa was really invited over.
