The Chicago Daily Herald reports Conservative WLS-AM morning show co-host Dan Profit plans to spend $2 million before Election Day to help Republicans get elected in Illinois. Profit heads up the Liberty Principles PAC, a committee that spent a lot of money in the primary election trying to defeat several incumbent Republican state lawmakers. The paper reports Profit's PAC will run ads and mailers for a number of suburban Republican candidates and has already made a TV ad for businessman Mel Thillens of Park Ridge, who is running against Democratic state Rep. Marty Moylan of Des Plaines. Profit said, "We think that there needs to be more balance in state government."
