One of the writers of Lake County Eye apparently gets off on making derogatory comments about yours truly.

When I wrote a story about Bill Scheurer’s possible candidacy in the GOP primary in the 14th congressional district, an article appeared making fun of me and Scheurer.

“The rumor strikes your LakeCountyEye as either disinformation, pure &
simple — or the by-product of senescence, fueled by wishful thinking.
Either way, the rumor is so bizarre your LakeCountyEye would pay money just
to see it happen.”

Scheuer responded to a comment with his usual wit:

Yeah, now if only there were a Democrat running in IL-14 who could raise enough cash to talk about those issues.The tragedy is that once Walsh beats Hultgren — and I have no doubt that the charismatic conservative will win a low turnout conservative primary — he’ll be unstoppable, if for no other reason than that he won’t have a serious Democratic challenger.

You said: “your LakeCountyEye would pay money just to see it happen.”Please send your check for $2,500 (or $5,000 with spouse) to Bill Scheurer for Congress, 387 Northgate Rd, Lindenhurst, IL 60046.

Or were you just spilling ink?
