The election facing Illinois is one of critical importance. There are stark differences between Jim Ryan and Rod Blagojevich. For those who are concerned with family issues in this state, there is no other choice but to put our full-fledged support behind Ryan, a man who has proven to be an effective leader as this state’s top law enforcement officer and a man who has never broken his word on pro-family issues.

There are still those within the conservative fold who seem to think that Ryan’s loss would be a good thing. Nothing could be further from the truth. We would be foolish, irresponsible and disloyal to our pro-family agenda to do this. To not vote for Ryan is a vote for Blagojevich. Our great state cannot afford to see this happen. Let’s get off the fence and support Ryan, a man of character, strength and dignity.
