Lawyer, freelance writer, judicial candidate?

Bonnie McGrath, a freelance writer and an attorney in solo practice, is thinking of making another bid for judicial office. (She ran once before, in 1998.)

Full disclosure: I've known Ms. McGrath for several years since we both served together on the Editorial Board of the CBA Record; McGrath still serves.

Among her other writing assignments, McGrath writes a blog called the "South Loop Observer" that can be accessed through the website of the Chicago Journal. McGrath mentions her possible judicial campaign in this October 13 blog entry; she even embeds a link back to this blog in her article.
