1/ This arrived from @JBPritzker and it's going on the lawn. It's gushing enthusiasm for a candidate I don't normally indulge but I've gotten very weary of the "@GovPritzker Sucks" signs.
#Pritzker's done an outstanding job ... if you care about governing.

2/ Under #Pritzker #Illinois is paying its bills on-time for the first time in **years.**

5/ I see that other candidates offer cultural anger, and I understand its appeal. But if politics is about the management of the common weal, it's difficult for me to imagine someone who's done better.
And I was *not* a fan when #Pritzker was elected.

6/ I moved away from IL in 1995. Illinoisans shortsightedly dug themselves a deep hole while I was gone. Pritzker has been the best thing I could imagine happening here in state government. Perfect? No.
