For governor, I'm backing the guy whose personal check I can match

Let's see, channeling Secretariat, Governor Rauner is runaway leader, having ponied up $50 million of his billionaire wealth for his upcoming campaign. Democrat Jay Pritzker places with a cool seven mil. Chris Kennedy barely shows up to grab show with a paltry $250,000 in Kennedy Kash. Still out of sight in last place, State Senator Dan Biss just contributed twenty-five bucks to his sensible peoples' campaign, resting on the wise fiscal solution to Illinois' woes of a progressive income tax. Ironically, that matches what I contributed to him on Day One after he saddled up his financially austere gubernatorial thoroughbred. .

Forget the deluge of money...I'm betting on the people to pick the winner in this high stakes race to save Illinois.
