I say Rauner. Rauner is no Brady. I believe social conservativism is what did in Brady. Rauner is more of a Jim Thompson/Jim Edgar/Mark Kirk Republican. Fiscally conservative and socially moderate. I believe that had Kirk not embellished his military record, he would have beaten Giannoulias by about 5 points, and may have managed to help Brady too. Remember, Brady was slightly ahead in almost all the polls. It was close enough for Quinn to Cook County his way to victory. Rauner is ahead by more now than Brady ever was.
