Political Quotes

“I would like to congratulate the gentleman from Illinois, Congressman Randy Hultgren, on winning our friendly wager on the MAC football championship game last Friday. The participants in the game, Ohio University and Northern Illinois University, are located in the districts that we are privileged to represent. The game was an instant classic. Both teams left everything on the field and gave it their all and, in the process, made their universities and their fans proud. The OU Bobcats jumped out to an early lead, but the Huskies of Northern Illinois fought back. They showed their toughness and won the game on the game's final play. Another way to say it is that OU won the first half and that Northern Illinois won the second half. Both teams were worthy of participation in the game, but it's a shame that either team had to come out on the losing end. I am very proud of the OU Bobcats, and I look forward to watching both teams compete in their bowl games and represent their schools in the same fashion they did last Friday night. Congratulations to Congressman Hultgren. ____________________”
