Chris Cleveland tells it true?

Oak Park Republicans

43rd Ward Committeeman who challenged Aaron Del Mar for GOP county chairman reacts to claim that county GOP’s fielding no candidates was a plan to thwart Dems:

This is offensive beyond belief,” Cleveland said. “Any Republican who thinks we shouldn’t put Republicans on the ballot is either working for the Democrats, or has a basic misunderstanding of how electoral politics work.”

Oh, and if it had been a plan, why did Del Mar have people trying to get signatures for three presumed candidates right up to the last minute? Was he fooled too?

Hillary Clinton on being ready for gay marriage

Hillary Clinton defending self on charge of coming late to gay “marriage” support, arriving only when politics demanded it:

“You know, somebody is always first,” Clinton said. “Somebody is always out front and thank goodness they are. But that doesn’t mean that those who join later, in being publicly supportive or even privately accepting that there needs to be change, are any less committed. You could not be having the sweep of marriage equality across the country if nobody changed their mind, and thank goodness so many of us have.”

Even privately accepting????

Oh Hill, we should have known what you were thinking!
