Chicago Tribune endorses Erika Harold!

by:  Diane Benjamin I have nothing against Rep Rodney Davis’s voting record, but his attitude is a problem.  He has not held Town Hall meetings, opting instead for visiting businesses.  It is almost like he is afraid of tough questions.  Maybe the Chicago Tribune saw the same thing: Tribune endorsements for the U.S. House The […]

Maybe Rodney Davis should have asked conservatives for help – not the GOP

Dear We’re 13 days away. That’s it. 13 days to take back the 13th District. 13 days to show Rodney that we’re not intimidated by his millions in lies and distortions. 13 days to prove our commitment to Medicare, Social Security, and the middle class. A new poll has me winning by 9% and today we surpassed […]

DAVID GILL ADMITS COORDINATING WITH DCCC

SPRINGFIELD – On a press conference call that just ended, 13th CD Democrat candidate Dr. David Gill and his staffer “Lucie” responded to IL GOP accusations of coordinating with the DCCC by reading a prepared statement for reporters concerning a fund Gill insists is funded by grassroots donations rather than the corporate donations. “The money being spent is from […]

Socialist Schakowsky backs Gill

Jan Schakowsky describes HERSELF as a socialist.  Since schools no longer teach what socialism is – here the brief:  destruction of capitalism, government control of the economy, jail or worse for objectors.  No socialist country has EVER been successful at pulling people out of poverty. Still thinking of voting for Dr. Gill? U.S. Rep. JAN SCHAKOWSKY, D-Evanston, […]

Davis-Gill Debate

If you think Nancy Pelosi should be back in charge of the House and Barack Obama should remain President, then vote for Gill.  His presentation tonight is in lock step with BIG government. government run healthcare was somehow tied to virtually every subject taxing millionaires and billionaires – Fair Share – cornerstone of campaign.  Of […]

What to Expect from Dr. Gill Tonight

In last night’s debate we saw President Obama draw a stark contrast between himself and Mitt Romney. Tonight marks the first of 3 debates with my opponent, Rodney Davis, and I plan to do the same.  I look forward to having the chance to speak to Rodney face-to-face about the issues affecting this district. It […]

It’s clear Mitt Romney will say anything, including lie, to win the election.I support President Obama’s plans to protect Social Security and Medicare, increase access to college and hire more teachers. Please help […]

Fly on the Wall

When buzzing in my ear is too great to ignore – I must report! Dr. Gill – calling Dr. Gill – anybody home? Are you afraid to debate Rodney Davis?  I want to hear your thoughts on ANYTHING other than socialized medicine! You are running for the US House of Representatives, not the head of […]

Vetting Dr Gill again, again, again

Quote from Dr. Gill: “Rodney Davis wants to take us back to the failed Republican policies of deregulation and more tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires.  I believe billionaires should pay their fair share and will fight to keep taxes low for middle-class families who make less than $250,000”. Would someone please check for the […]

Mitt says they can just go to the ER to […]

Vetting David Gill – Part 2

https://www.facebook.com/GillforIL13 From Dr Gill’s Facebook page: Congress should be working to make college more affordable, not harder for middle-class families to pay for.

Who Should Represent the 13th District?

by Diane Benjamin First, I must express my outrage again over Tim Johnson’s sudden decision to not run in November AFTER winning the March 20th primary.  He obviously tried to determine his successor instead of leaving his seat in the hands of the people, sorry Tim, but it belongs to us. Last night a forum […]
