It’s hard to believe that McHenry County Republicans haven’t discovered they can use McHenry County Blog the way McHenry County Democrats have.

The Democrats know I love political photographs.

They sent four from Harvard’s Milk Day, plus some copy that I can copy:

“More than 30 adults and several children made up the Democratic Party contingent in Saturday’s Harvard Milk Day Parade. The unit consisted of a party float, a Tom Cynor for State’s Attorney trailer, and several candidates.

“Democrats were warmly received with cheers and waves throughout to whole march. Many parade watchers called out encouragement and support for Presidential Candidate Barack Obama.”

The best photo was taken by Linda DiGregor. It is of 16 district congressional candidate Robert Abboud campaigning on the parade route. Really good composition, I’d say.

There is another taken by public relations mavin Patrick Murfin of the participating candidates. They are

Robert Ludwig , County Board Dist. 6; James McTague , County Board Dist. 1; Tom Cynor, State’s Attorney; Robert Abboud , 16th Congressional District; Kerry Julian, Auditor; and Jeff Thirtyacer, County Board Dist. 4.

Murffin even provided the links to the campaign web sites. How’s that for making it easy on me?

There’s one by Tom Cynor of the folks, most dressed in identical tee shirts.

There is even humor in the press release.

The Democrats have even reported on the Republican entry with another photo by Lisa Georgi. It is described as

“one lonely, rusty old police car with campaign yard signs duct taped to the sides.“

It looks like a car people would be interested in, but I don’t see a John McCain for President sign taped to the car, but maybe it was on the back.

All photographs can be enlarged by clicking on them. The picture of Harmilda at the top of the article obviously was not taken on Milk Day.
