Bobby Schilling: “If You Make A Promise, You Gotta Keep It” [AUDIO]

Bobby Schilling served one term in the House as Illinois' congressman from the 17th district. He'd like to return to Washington, but first he must win a Rocky II-type rematch with the current Congresswoman, Cheri Bustos.

Much has been made in the past week or so about a promise that Bustos made in front of the Chicago Tribune editorial board that she has yet to make good on. As WQAD explains:

The promise he’s claiming Bustos made happened during a 2012 interview with the Chicago Tribune, when he says then candidate Bustos was talking about her plan to congressional pay by 10% through a vote. When asked if she would cut her pay regardless of how a vote turns out, she said “Yes,” but has failed to do so, according to Schilling.

You can hear the actual audio of the 2012 promise in our full interview starting at the 4:43 mark. We got Bobby Schilling's reaction, talked to him about the continuing IRS scandal, and also asked how constituent services would improve if he were elected again:
