Rich Miller
made note of Bill Brady's (the Republican nominee for Governor)
comments on this particular issue. Cited it as evidence of Brady's growth as a candidate & leader:
Republican candidate for Illinois governor
Bill Brady says he thinks there's a "lack of sensitivity" regarding the
building of a mosque near the site of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in
New York City.
Brady
on Tuesday wouldn't give an opinion on whether he supports or opposes
the mosque site near Ground Zero. He said he hopes "sensitive minds
will deal with this in a sensible way."
There here's Democratic incumbent Pat Quinn's comments on this particular issue from the
Post-Dispatch:
Illinois Gov. Pat
Quinn on Wednesday said he believes proponents of building
a mosque near the site of the 9-11 attacks in New York City should
respect a ``zone of solemnity'' and move it further from the
site.
The comments were surprising because Quinn is the state's top
Democrat and a staunch supporter of President Barack
Obama, who has said the mosque has the right to locate
near ``ground zero'' as a statement of American principles of
freedom of religion.
Quinn, surprisingly may have handled this issue better than the
Democratic nominee for US Senate. ;)
