Now Lipinski is probably going to shift even more far to the right.

Lipinski is not a Republican. And this is a traditional Democratic "working-class" district, not some deep red Trumpian district.

Marie Newman ran a good campaign. But next time let's not go with a generic white liberal.
Yup. She pulled an Emily Cain.

Run to the district. Nominate someone pro-life, or at least not as strenuously pro-choice.

I am glad about the outcome. At least this preserves some ideological diversity within the Democratic caucus.
I mean Manchin and Cuellar and Costa were still gonna be there regardless...

I don't think running an anti-abortion candidate would be the best idea. But acting like the campaign is entirely about abortion is stupid. Find a candidate who is (1) a minority, and (2) can campaign on a variety of issues. Because there is a lot wrong with Lipinski.

In reality though I think Lipinski retires in 2020.

Also, dear homophobes in this thread: you are still scum.

The statement of an ideological extremist. It is unfortunate that such types seem to predominate on this board.
You have a really skewed view of the world. Not liking homophobes is extremist now?

I did not say that. I'm saying that many of the posters on this forum are willing to rip into other people first, before having a debate over the issues.
Homophobic politician- I do not think LGBT people should have rights.
Normal people- WTF! You're a terrible person!
You-Calm down, stop being so uncivil and just have a polite debate over whether you are worthy of basic human respect

I just love how a decent size chunk of Newman fans on here are essentially cursing Lipinski fans and calling us trash, but are now encouraging supporting a literal neo-nazi, great...

Somewhere, Paul Ryan is scribbling "RUN CONSERVATIVES AS DEMOCRATS" in a notebook while doing leg-curls.

Now Lipinski is probably going to shift even more far to the right.
Maybe he'll move to the center? He just nearly lost a primary to an ultralib.

Unlikely. If he does he's for sure a goner in 2020

He's either gonna get outed with Bernie Sanders on top of the ticket in 2020 or he'll start voting like a left winger to keep his seat. Or both. Or he'll retire in 2020.

About this whole 'Lipinski is a working class hero' thing- it's not generally the experience of ordinary working class people to be gifted a congressional seat by your father

Watch a progressive run as a Republican in this district in 2020.

Madigan is delivering sacks of Lipinski votes as we speak. They keep them right next to the JFK 1960 vote sacks

The attacks being made were directed against posters on this forum, such as myself, who have sought to interject ourselves into this topic. And the antics of people like you who distort the positions of others does nothing to further the debate along.

The most populated parts of DuPage in IL-3 are Western Springs aka Dan's hometown.

Lipinski's lead has been around 1,600 votes for the past hour or so.

I feel I must be the only person happy with Lipinski and Rauner both leading.
I bet you hate Madigan but love Lipinski
