(Chicago, IL) — Congressman Mark Kirk says he’s not surprised by a call from GOP fundraiser Ron Gidwitz for Kirk to abandon his reelection bid. Kirk released a statement today saying he and Gidwitz have had a strained relationship for some time. Gidwitz said Kirk’s recent verbal gaffes make it impossible for him to win, though Gidwitz later tried to take the comment back, saying he didn’t what to take the heat for his views.
