I met Illinois State Treasure Dan Rutherford when
he introduced Mitt Rommney at Pancakes Eggcetera in Rosemont Illinois on March
16th 2012 of last year. He was the Chairman of the Romney Campaign
here in Illinois. A few days later I met Dan Rutherford again on March 20th
at the Renaissance Hotel in Schaumburg when Mitt Romney won the Illinois
Primary. After Mitt had made his speech and the gathering was braking up I saw Dan
Rutherford shaking hands with people. By this time I was extremely impressed
with Dan Rutherford and how he managed Mitt’s campaign in the Illinois Primary.
So I went up to him and said, “You did a great job,” and shook his hand. It was an exciting night and I will never
forget it.
A year has gone by and I found out that Dan
Rutherford is going to be running for Governor here in Illinois. I can’t think
of a better person to fill that office.
I got a letter in the mail saying that he
would be at the Schaumburg Township Republican Breakfast. I really wanted to
go. So instead of sleeping in on Saturday’s like I usually do, I set my alarm
early enough this morning so I could get to the breakfast in time in order to
meet him again and hear what he had to say. I was not disappointed. I even signed
up as a member of the Schaumburg Township Republican Organization.
Well this is just the beginning and I am sure
I’ll have more to say about what’s going on as time gets closer to the
elections next year.
