I'll be willing to do things that politicians won't do. Because I don't care who I upset.

Voters want conflicting things. They want a lot of government spending, but they don't want higher taxes.

I have my strong views and opinions. I really want to transform Illinois government because this state is failing the taxpayers and the children.

Those who want low taxes and healthy job creation know that an unnecessary dollar going to these unions is a dollar that cannot reduce the tax burden on homeowners, small businesses, and job creators.

I didn't get upset because I wasn't nominated, but I was a little surprised.

I'm always upset about not doing things as good as I think I could have because I care.
