The best choice for governor is State Sen. Patrick O’Malley. As a champion for the taxpayer, O’Malley sponsored the largest tax rebate in state history and led the fight to repeal the Retail Rate Law, saving taxpayers $13 billion in subsidies to wealthy garbage incinerators.

As a champion for innocent human life, O’Malley sponsored the infant-born-alive legislation, and has received the endorsements of the Illinois Federation Right to Life and Illinois Citizens for Life.

As a champion for the rights of Illinoisans to provide for their self-defense, O’Malley is unequaled. He has been endorsed by the Illinois State Rifle Association and the National Rifle Association.

To win in November, Republicans must nominate a candidate who is principled and untainted by the broken promises and scandal associated with the George Ryan administration.

O’Malley is such a candidate.

A proven general-election winner, he’s won election three times in a heavily Democrat area, because Independent and Democratic voters respect his commitment to principle and integrity.
