Better than Stephanopoulos w/ Hillary Clinton: Berkowitz w/Democratic Illinois Comptroller Candidate Clint Krislov; Cable and Soon Streaming
Clint Krislov: No, I’m not waffling. I’m telling you when people get their pension doubled or tripled and then move out of state, so that they can receive their pension and start working somewhere else now and they never have to pay Illinois tax on that, that’s a concern.

Ed. Note: Is Krislov waffling? You can watch the whole show and be the judge of that. For more on this general issue, See the comments of the Chicago Tribune's Eric Zorn and Berkowitz here.

Raising taxes and fairness
Clint Krislov (D-Wilmette), Candidate for State Comptroller: What Krislov says is that before you can ask people to raise their taxes, you’ve got to make the system fair, you’ve got to make it so that it’s not just the taxpayers who are the sucker in this game…
Jeff Berkowitz: How do you make it fair?
Clint Krislov (D-Wilmette): You eliminate the double and triple dippers, people who are able to leave employment at age 60 and make, three pensions, more than they ever made when they were working for the State and local—
***********************************
Clint Krislov: …the Comptroller should be the taxpayer’s, the citizen’s watchdog.
**************************************
The Comptroller's bully pulpit and expressing concerns.
Jeff Berkowitz: …if you were the State Comptroller, would you use the bully pulpit to say, “You know, it would be fairer if people earning retirement benefits, pension benefits had that income taxed [by the State of Illinois].”
Clint Krislov: It would be something you would have to consider
Jeff Berkowitz: But, you’re not taking a position?
Clint Krislov: Well, you know—
Jeff Berkowitz: You’re waffling.
Clint Krislov: No, I’m not waffling. I’m telling you when people get their pension doubled or tripled and then move out of state, so that they can receive their pension and start working somewhere else now and they never have to pay Illinois tax on that, that’s a concern.

Ed. Note: Is Krislov waffling? You can watch the whole show and be the judge of that. For more on this general issue, See the comments of the Chicago Tribune's Eric Zorn and Berkowitz here. But, whatever you think about the above colloquy, most importantly, Clint Krislov showed up. One of his Democratic Primary opponent’s, Raja Krishnamoorthi, is also scheduled to show up and tape the show this Sunday.
But another Primary opponent of Krislov's, Rep. David Miller, is guilty, so far, of a much worse sin. Team Miller has not responded to our repeated invitations to schedule a time for Rep. Miller to tape the show. As the saying by Woody Allen goes, “90% of life is just showing up.” So, Krislov and Krishnamoorphi are getting "Public Affairs," grades in the 90% and up range, which are very good grades. Rep. Miller? so far, not so good.
