Tonight we learned the road to A New Day in Illinois is longer than we had hoped. But the fight we waged against the under performing Illinois establishment does not end tonight and certainly does not end with my campaign. Over the course of the last year, you have opened a new chapter in Illinois politics and renewed the Reagan revolution that first came to Illinois in 1976. Tea Parties, 9/12 organizations and other advocacy organizations have re-ignited the consciousness of conservatism. Your passion has captured the imagination of thousands of Illinoisans across our great state from Rockford to Carbondale; from Quincy to Danville. and created an unprecedented grassroots movement calling for honest, accountable, and limited government. Today, we may have been delayed, but we have not been denied.
I am committed to rebuilding our party and I am committed to re-laying the foundation with the values and principles our nation's founders knew to be essential for liberty: limited government, free enterprise, individual freedom and traditional American values.
I still believe that it's your turn. I still believe the dawn of a new day is rising in Illinois. And I still believe that what you have started over the course of the last year is epic and has already made history in so many ways. And, I am still with you, for Illinois.
