While many people thought the drama surrounding ex-Il Gov. Rod Blagojevich was over, it appears otherwise. New allegations about Blagojevich’s appointment of Senator Roland Burris to the openIllinoisseat have arisen as Burris recently admitted that he was solicited to raise money for Blagojevich’s campaign. While Majority Leader Senator Harry Reid has not called on Senator Burris to resign, the citizens ofIllinoisare and the Chicago Tribune ran an editorial yesterday asking him to step down. MostIllinoisresidents want a special election for the seat after all of the controversy and scandal around it. This means that a moderate Republican that truly represents the views ofIllinoiscitizens could win the seat in a special election. We will keep you updated with any news or changes on the situation.
RealRepublicanMajority.org is working to bring the GOP’s agenda back to the center and promote common sense values. The Real Republican Majority promotes tolerance, not bigotry. We want the GOP to focus on the longstanding beliefs in sound fiscal policy, smaller government, lower taxes, a growing economy and individual liberty. We believe that these traditional goals should be first and foremost in the GOP. Unlike the 'my way or the highway' tactics of social extremists we know that there is often room for compromise and common ground on issues of disagreement. It is time to promote the big tent, protect personal freedom and ensure that the GOP reflects the beliefs of the Real Republican Majority NOT pander to the demands of a hostile and vocal minority.
