Time-honored words of advice

Posted October 31, 2007 11:00 pm

I have a bit of advice for the majority of the Democratic Congress, and in particular those who are supposed to represent the people of Illinois:

A winner never quits and a quitter never wins, a saying used by my high school football coach 50 years ago when the Barrington High School team was undefeated and allowed only three touchdowns the whole year.

You gotta believe a saying used by one to the Little League coaches my son played for when Barrington went to the Little League World Series.

If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all, a saying my mother used as I was growing up.

So here's what I have to say about our Illinois Democratic representatives .
