Review of the IL Convention

By punch bowl | January 27, 2008

An excerpt from the Illinois Review blog:

You’ve just got to love those hearty Illinois College Republicans who came to Chicago this weekend. They are true believers in Republican values, or they would have stayed in their dorms from Springfield to DeKalb to Chicago, waiting for the next heart-pumping “Obama-rama” rally to hit their campus. Instead they braved the cold and sacrificed precious funds to find out how bad things are for Republicans.

One thing about it. If, by some miracle, they endure this year and aren’t turned off to politics altogether — much less Republican politics — they will someday look back and see how bad things can get. And maybe if this year’s bad experience makes a permanent and deep enough mark in their impressionable political psyches, they’ll remember this and won’t ever let it happen again.

That, and that alone, my friend, gives me hope for the future of the Republican Party.

    Is that a review of the 2008 political climate in general or specifically of the IL CR convention?
