Rauner gets Sun-Times nod in Governor’s race

The Chicago Sun-Times has endorsed Republican Bruce Rauner over Democratic Governor Pat Quinn in the race for Illinois governor. The endorsement published online Saturday calls Rauner “an extraordinarily capable businessman” who might be able to “break the stranglehold of uninspired, self-serving, 1-party rule in Springfield.” The newspaper calls Quinn a man of integrity. But it says his “uninspired tinkering on fiscal matters” won’t save Illinois.
