Young Republicans Eyeing Chicago (VIDEO)

CBS Chicago reports on young Republicans looking to convert Democrats:

Young Republicans are on a mission to turn heavily Democratic Chicago into John McCain country. As CBS 2's Mike Parker reports they're fired up for the grand old party.

On Friday night, in the heart of Democrat country - downtown Chicago - young Republicans and members of "Young Professionals for McCain" got together. They were networking, snacking and drinking, and talking about Sarah Palin and her much discussed appearances on ABC News.

Watch video.

I cannot imagine a greater waste of time than this endeavor. They will need to drink a LOT to get over this one.

We call them "coolers". As in, the party ends when they show up.

Good to see them wasting their time and money. Have fun kids.

Not a bad time though for Republicans to make a stand...(no chance of winning )... Chicago, CookCounty, and Illionois ..Most corrupt, most nepotism, patronage , all Democrat...highest sales taxes, highest gas.. The home of Stroger, Barack, Daley , Blago Ayers, Wright, Rezkow... an opportune time

[anastasiabeaverhousen]

Sure. They can bring Abramhoff, Delay, Duke Cunningham and all the rest of the criminals from the GOP to Chicago. Good luck with that.

These young women have no sense of history. If it had been up to the Republicans they would be bringing coffee to the men in the office while getting a pat on the behind.

These young Republicans are just parroting their parents' beliefs. They have no identity of their own.
