As much as I disagreed with many of the commentaries posted on the Illinois Leader--an online conservative publication--I'm sorry to learn that it's "suspended until further notice" according to an e-mail from publisher Dan Proft.
Its message boards were where the cloven hooves of dueling wacko factions on the right kicked one another (and the dreaded liberals and Democrats), yet rumors and innuendo that first appeared there often provided solid leads and useful background if not early warnings.
I not only hope the Leader comes back, but I also hope that lefties in the state coalesce behind a similar, competing online publication.
