Tio Needs a Job

  • When his wife decided not to pursue a domestic battery charge against him last month, a feisty-sounding Tio Hardiman — the former head of the anti-violence group CeaseFire Illinois — promised a “comeback.”

    Here it is: He’s running for governor of Illinois.

    “I plan to run a very positive campaign,” Hardiman told the Chicago Sun-Times Friday morning. “This is not a decision I made overnight. I always wanted to run. I was too busy trying to run CeaseFire.”

So who's backing Tio? Quinn of Daley? Who benefits from Tio drawing away the alleged domestic violence voter?

Tio getting elected governor would truly be a black eye for Illinois.

GET IT?!

Because he beats women.

Giving them black eyes.

The GDs (Gangster Disciplines) are endorsing him, so he has at least 50,000 votes from friends and family

Siphon some of the black vote...

Split the white vote...

Pander to whoever is left standing around digging in their ass...

The business of robbing the taxpayer as usual, resumes the day after the election.

Yeah... Illinois is beyond screwed.

Just A Citizen: this state needs to reboot and pull a Seinfeld where George does everything the opposite he ever did and his life turned around. Reading about these idiots is better than any comedy. So beyond ridiculous you couldn't make this stuff up. A travesty really. Get rid of everyone and the next regime must do the opposite of the current idiots.

Illinois has such a bunch of bums running for Governor, why not invite Elliot Spitzer or even Anthony Weiner to come and run here.

Wake up and stop the madness! Vote for someone other than some hack career politician.

Next case.

Knowing he doesn't have a chance (or an income) he'll stay in to siphon off votes from Quin, Daley or whomever, until he's given a backroom deal to drop-out before the election.
At that time an offer will be made to him i.e. pol job, cash, power etc.
He's got nothing to lose.
He's in there just as a 'spoiler.'

>>> 'Hardiman said he plans to draw on the support of the “thousands of people” who “stayed in my corner” during his troubles. ... He says he’s seeking a female running mate.' <<<

"Thousands". Well bad news for Quinn and Daley, looks like Tio's got a lock the Gangbanger vote [Larry Hoover was unavailable for comment].

But if I was Tio I'd check the election laws before wasting too much time, and other peoples money on that running mate thing. Female or otherwise. Unless our Constitution was amended when I was sleeping there's no 'running mate' in the Governor race. The Lt Governor is not on the same 'ticket' (Ballot) with Governor like with the President & Vice President of USA.

It's why Blago faced the insurrection led by Quinn and the eventual coup. Gov Elvis & Lt Gov Potato Head loathed each other.

If the gangs put their money behind this shithead he could actually pull it off! But if they did that, the gym shoe and Escalade markets would crash...

Watch, Fop will probably endorse Tio if he says he'll keep police pensions the same but change everything else. It's the problem in Illinois.

You can only complain about the current serving politicians if you didn't vote for them. I hate to offend anyone but I have always said we have the dumbest voters in this city and state, you got what you voted for stop complaining. Wake up Illinois and Chicago.

If Tio gets in the entire State will be the next Detroit. Not because he's black but because he is a real POS that thinks he can do whatever he wants. He will drive people out and there will be nothing left but the downstate small towns. The thought of him is a very scary thought.

Bill Daley running for Governor makes no sense. He is a millionaire, he has been in extremely important positions in D.C., so why would he want to be Governor? Something is going on here behind the scenes.

And 8.5 million more to the mom of a shitbird shot by the police. I was there after the shooting. Of course the poleece planted the gun. Everyone knows he don't carry a gun. It was pitch black in that alley but multiple witnesses said they didn't see a gun. Were these witnesses 5 feet from him, or did they stand over his body after he was shot? Funny how a baby gets shot and you can't get 5 witnesses, but for this crap, everyone in the neighborhood saw it and rioting ensued.

The first time was a mistrial, so obviously someone with common sense was on that jury.

I would love a Governor named Weiner.

It invokes a lovely visual image.

The last thing this state needs is another Ex-Con in Office!

If he got elected he no doubt would be the third governor in ten years to go to jail for something stupid!
I'll bet money on this pass line!

Tio has the right mindset, and the political experience necessary to win in Illinois. He has already successfully made off with $1,000,000 in taxpayer money to Ceasefire, which has still disappeared and is unaccounted for. Way to go, Tio! Apparently following in the footsteps of Blago! With that kind of mindset, he and other notable swindlers/crooks, like Mr. & Mrs. Jesse Jr., we are guaranteed to keep the Democratic machine well lubed and running for a long time to come!
