Blow a Kiss

nothing personal, strictly business
The Question of the Day will test your knowledge of current affairs:
Q: The White House recently changed the Federal campaign finance rules. What is the new legal limit on campaign donations?

A: $50,000 in a brown paper bag.
Lake County GOP favorite step-son Aaron Del Mar knows a thing or two about where to go for campaign cash:
On the Republican side, if you want a prayer to win in Illinois, you'd better make your homage to Lake Forest and kiss the ring of Dick Uihlein to get that money.

Perennial candidate Aaron Del Mar is perennial candidating again, this time with perennial gubernatorial candidate, Darren Bailey:
Former gubernatorial candidate and staunch conservative Darren Bailey launched a repeat campaign Thursday and once again chose a suburban running mate. The downstate Republican farmer and former state senator's pick for lieutenant governor — Cook County Republican Party Chairman Aaron Del Mar of Palatine — makes for a marked contrast.
Bailey jumps into the governor's race for a second time with Palatine's Del Mar
It would seem natural that Del Mar would make the pilgrimage to kiss the ring of Lake County moneybags Richard Uihlein:
After giving millions of dollars to Republican gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey's unsuccessful 2022 campaign, megadonor Richard Uihlein of Lake Forest is backing a different candidate in the 2026 contest. Late last month, Uihlein donated $250,000 to Wilmette Republican Ted Dabrowski's campaign
After spending millions on Bailey in 2022, GOP megadonor Uihlein backs Dabrowski for governor
Note to Ops: You may need to kiss more than just the ring.
