This is the first call from this number for me. I did not answer. They did not leave a message.
John Kass, in todays Chicago Tribune, feels that Mitt is out of touch with the people of Illinois because he could not give a straight answer on wether he would keep Patrick Fitzgerald as the top federal prosecutor in Illinois. Mitt hemmed and hawed about not being familiar with Fitz's record and not knowing anything about him etc, etc during an interview on WLS radio. Kass thinks and I agree that if Romney was in touch with the people of Illinois, he would know that Illinois has corruption like the ocean has salt water and Fitzgerald is DOING something about it. This kind of robo-calling further supports, in my mind, the idea that Romney is out of touch with the people in Chicago at least and possibly the rest of the state. I am conservative on some issues and liberal on others but I usually vote Republican. If the rest of the candidates do this to me, I will go to the polls come Tuesday and cast a blank ballot which is my way of saying that none of them are worthy of my support or my respect (you can do that in Chicago at least).
They called again! They must know people are hanging up on them and trying things to prevent them from calling again and again because the opening message is a recording of Romney himself saying if you'll just stay on the line you'll have an opportunity to talk to me directly and ask me questions - that's when I hung up. That's the 3rd call today!
