Aspiring Chicago mayoral candidate state Sen. Rickey Hendon was warming up a rally for Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn. He had the following to say about Quinn's GOP opponent.
“Let me tell you a couple things. I’ve served with Bill Brady. I’ve never served with such an idiotic, racist, sexist, homophobic person in my life,” Hendon told the crowd. “If you think that the minimum wage needs to be $3 an hour, vote for Bill Brady. If you think that women have no rights whatsoever except to have his children, vote for Bill Brady. If you think gay and lesbian people need to be locked up and shot in the head, vote for Bill Brady.”
The crowd actually applauded those remarks. Gov. Pat Quinn was forced to disassociate himself from the outrageous comments.
