Wait till folks start looking at his record. 48th state in the nation in terms of business climate. Second highest property taxes in the country. Our once great city of Chicago in shambles. Public schools a national disgrace. He will get laughed off the debate stage.

The only requirement for Dem candidacy is that you follow orders.
The democrats couldn’t find a more unqualified candidate than pritzger, oh, wait a minute.
Pritzker’s bloviating isn’t impressing anyone, anywhere.

And thank you, Johnna, so very much for your clearly well informed, considered and sober minded opinion.

Probably touting his recent deferral of the scheduled $.02 gas tax hike upon Illinois residents…
