He begins each day trolling the political coverage of three newspapers. Throughout the day he receives Google updates on the campaign and routinely scans an array of polling Web sites. In his free time he's working on a doctorate in political science at the University of Illinois at Chicago. His spirits rise and fall on endless waves of voter data. "Just when you feel down, there's some poll that makes you feel better," he said.

SUBURBAN LIFE PUBLICATIONS
-- DIERSEN HEADLINE: Needless-to-say, because Suburban Life Publications employs Jerry Moore, Suburban Life Publications is 100 percent responsible for a) everything that Moore says, writes, and publishes and b) Moore's continued harassment of Diersen. Moore argues that he is not a liberal; acknowledges that "if there’s anything that members of the liberal news media demand, it’s universal health care;" argues that Diersen makes "unsubstantiated claims;" states that "The ideological thrust to elect Obama is so great that we’ll do whatever we can to see Obama become president, even jeopardize our livelihoods;" argues that "Diersen wants to shove everyone in an ideological cookie-cutter;" promotes Ken Vanko's arguments; and argues that Diersen devises "false characterizations." Moore blasts people who have "never met" Moore. In a 9:44 PM October 20 email to Diersen, Moore quotes Scripture to Diersen; argues that Diersen is doing "the cause of conservatism no good;" challenges Diersen to make Moore "understand why you believe as you do;" argues that Diersen does "not know how to defend the charges you make daily;" argues that Diersen "should be held accountable for making allegations;" argues that Diersen has to "justify your statements;" argues that Diersen has to "Provide evidence that what you're saying is true;" says "I will put this issue to DuPage County Republican leaders;" demands that Diersen "back up the charges he makes;" asks "Should he continue to print unsubstantiated charges against people without presenting proof that what he says is true;" says that Diersen makes "frivolous accusations" with "no regard for the truth;" and again calls for others to join him in harassing Diersen.
