Newsweek finally owns up. See bottom of the article.

Since most of you who read this are Chicagoans, I wanted to remind you that tomorrow is our primary. In real elections, we should vote strategically, since we know what happens when you don't. Primary elections, however, is the opportunity to vote with your heart. If you supported Wes Clark, John Edwards, or, in my case, Howard Dean, you should still vote for them. After all, you're voting for their delegates, and if you believed in that candidate, you want their voice present at the convention. It's not just pomp and circumstance at the convention; it's writing the platform. Lord knows I want Howard Dean's still great message there in as full a force as possible.

And the Illinois senate primary is tomorrow, too. Still don't know the candidates? Pick up last week's Chicago Reader. Again, I'm voting my heart, and fortunately, my heart's choice has a commanding lead. (If you have to vote Republican because of that deal you made with Satan, consider John Borling.)

Finally, you're going to have several pages of judges to trudge through. There is one, however, that you have to vote for -- Jon Erickson. I know Jon from working with Larry McKeon and related campaigns. Jon is a stand-up guy with his heart and politics in the right place, especially on hate crimes. Vote for Jon.

It is funny though that judge candidates have received endorsements from the Lesbian & Gay Bar Association. "Gay bar." Funny.

VOTE TOMORROW!!!
