Illinois Republicans Set Up 'Fire Madigan' Web Store
8/28/2012

From Huffington Post:

Turns out Gov. Pat Quinn might not be the only Illinois Democrat who'd prefer to forget a markedly less-than-stellar showing at the State Fair earlier this month.

One day after Quinn made a pair of bizarre gaffes on Governor's Day at the Springfield, Ill. event, the Illinois GOP debuted a new "Save Illinois. Fire Madigan." sign to accompany their consistent skewering of the veteran state House Speaker and Chicago Democrat Michael Madigan's political record, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

The sign apparently proved so popular that state GOP leaders on Monday unveiled a CafePress web store offering up bumper stickers, buttons, yard signs, magnets, hats, coffee mugs, golf balls, t-shirts (for both humans and dogs) and more emblazoned with the slogan.

Items available through the "Fire Madigan" shop are being sold "at cost" and at no financial profit or less, according to the shop.

"They'll be the hottest, trendiest thing in the state of Illinois in the next four years," state GOP chairman Pat Brady told the Chicago Sun-Times' of the store in Clearwater Beach, Fla., where the state's delegates are staying during the Republican National Convention in Tampa.
