As any candidate with what appears to be such a sizeable lead would do, Oberweis hasn't really directly engaged with Doug Truax. He's appeared 'above it all'.
Now, however, it seems that Jim Oberweis isn't even interested in being around Illinois in the run-up to the Primary Election next week.
From the Sun-Times story entitled: 'Arrogant' Oberweis in Florida days before U.S. Senate primary:
U.S. Senate hopeful Jim Oberweis' opponent on Tuesday called the dairy magnate an "arrogant" "timid snowbird" for skipping out on debates and heading to Florida less than a week before the Illinois primary.
Oberweis' Republican primary opponent, West Point grad and Army veteran Doug Truax, said Oberweis, a state senator from Oswego, was disrespecting voters by leaving the state just before Tuesday's primary.
Our take on what appears to be the 'ultimate 1%-er' ILGOP Ticket?
