Trial Balloons

A new trial balloon has been floated. It's color is red (warning) for the unborn babies of Illinois, Mark Kirk, presently the 10th Congressional District Representative to the US House, is deciding what to do in 2010. In an Illinois Review article on 4/11/09, Chris Robling writes on the possibility of Kirk running for governor.

A previous trial balloon had US Representative Mark Kirk possibly running for the Senate seat, presently occupied by Roland Burris.
Robling, a 30 year contributor in the election of Mark Kirk, in his article states, I believe Illinois's best chance to make the leap to the governorship is Mark Kirk. Robling further states, he is a conservative and encourages the readers of Illinois Review to read Ken Tomlinson's tribute to Mark in the Weekly Standard. He relates how Kirk had created enough credibility in the House, that he assisted profoundly in the cause of freedom in the war on terror.

Conservative? I thought most conservatives understood that killing unborn babies is not in the best interest of the United States, much less the world. War on terror? I think the war on terror is the war that Congress is waging in legislating the killing of unborn babies. War on terror? The Obama administration is waging quite a war of terror on unborn babies. A Republican? Stick to the Platform.  But, Representative Kirk has never had a pro-life voting record. For Governor? I'll take my chances with a pro-life governor.  We have a lot of candidates to pick from.
