IlliniPundit (and I’m sure several others) beat me to the punchline…

“My goal in life has been to be a U.S. congressman,” Oberweis, 61, said after a rally at the North Aurora plant for his namesake boutique dairy. “The fact that I was running for the Senate was really an accident — partly caused by Denny Hastert, by the way, who asked me to get involved at that time.”

So not only does he now, on his 4th attempt at major elected office, realize his goal in life had nothing to do with the US Senate or the Governor’s office (let alone the stock market, milk and ice cream) … but he also slams the guy whose seat he is now seeking to replace.

It is quite possible that Mr. Oberweis has the biggest case of foot-in-mouthitis known to mankind. Thanks for the giggles Mr. Helicopter.

For those of you who vote with your wallets, yes, this is the same “Oberweis” whose family owns the dairy farm and chain of ice cream shoppes. You can buy his products if you support his antics  … or not, if you don’t.
