  1. Hypocrisy alert! Tara is sick of all the division, she claims, yet decides to star in a divisive ad.

    1. You really don’t want to get into a “tit-for-tat” delineation of Walker’s hypocrisy, do you? No. No, you don’t.

      1. Mark E.

        If it is about demeaning women and fighting equal pay or living wages, mr misogyny is johnny on the spot to condemn it. When it comes to a man spewing hate and repeatedly exhibiting ignorance, (as Chris Wery does, other thread) about about a woman and her religion he has nothing to say about it.

    2. If you were really so concerned about resolving divisiveness in the state, perhaps you should be counseling the governor about something that might make him (Mr Unintimidated) less threatened by male pattern baldness, which appears to burst one of his delusions about his invulnerability to the normal aging process and then help to maybe feel better about himself, thereby reducing his authoritarian need to attack everyone else in the state.

      You might write or phone and tell him:

      1) Mental stress from having to remember all the lies, reduces blood flow to the scalp, exasperating his condition.
      2) Suppressing natural guilt about failing your primary job while you spend more and more time seeking your next job also creates physical and psychological stress, often times leading to tendencies of megalomanical behavior.
      3) To read the rest of the instructions beyond “put a dab in your hand,” with his self-administered rogaine treatments which probably say to then actually apply it to one’s scalp. Wasting it where there are no hair follicles in the palms of his hands and wishing for results is well…you claim to know everything, figure it you.

    3. The ad is not decisive, Scott Walker has divided Wisconsin. Mary Burke will help to begin the healing of the division created by Scott Walker.

  2. Mary Burke will lose the race. It is all but certain. It is funny that she is the best that the party could bring forward.

    Nonquixote, how can you possibly look at Burke and see a winner for this governor’s race.

    1. You know that commercial where Mary Burke looks directly into the camera and says,”As Governor I’m going to take the best ideas from wherever I can find them”? That’s when, to my mind at least, Mary Burke went from just being a means of getting rid of an epic disaster of a Governor to having the potential to be a pretty good Governor in her own right. I suppose I should thank the WI GOP (or was it the RGA?) for drumming so hard on that empty plagiarism charge; if Burke hadn’t been backed into a corner I would have never seen her come out fighting. A nice change from Walker’s self-pity, whining and evasion, don’t you think?

  3. Seriously the ad where Mary Burke looks into the camera and says she will take ideas from anyone that is what pushes you over the edge to support her. Obviously you can vote however you want I love that about our country but only a hyper partisan liberal would attempt to try and say that what she did with her jobs plan and with several other plans was anything but plagiarism every one with half a brain knows that it was don’t even pretend. Don’t even try to say that if Scott Walker had anything out there that was plagiarized Word for Word from other people’s stuff that you wouldn’t be having a cow right now talking about it. I understand I know I get it Mary Burke is the one that did establishment wanted so you guys now have to support her I understand but don’t try to lie to people don’t try and pretend that she is in anyway qualified to be governor.

    We are a little over a week away from Scott Walker winning for a third time in four years Mary Burke isn’t winning this race Scott Walker is after Mary Burke loses then all of you liberal hacks will be on these sites been moaning the choice of Mary Burke criticizing her candidacy it will happen

    1. Well, the definition of plagiarism doesn’t exactly match up to the situation. But I will admit that it if the alternative is poor writing (as you’ve so kindly displayed for us), then a little “plagiarism” might be in order.

    I’m fairly certain that you understand the definition of plagiarism.

    I’m also fairly certain that while my “poor writing” may not be up to the standards of this fine blog I can spot a losing candidate. I again say, Mary Burke is quite possibly the sorriest excuse for a gubernatorial candidate in recent and past memory. She will lose and then you guys will take off your little blinders and see the truth.

    After Walker wins again maybe we can finally drop this silly “divider” label. Obviously three statewide wins in four years should make it clear that WI was and is in favor of his reforms.

  5. She not only plagiarized her jobs plan but also several other plans as well that can’t be tied to her little consultant. So stop with the lies.

    As for my poor writing… You don’t need to be a literary scholar to see that Burke is a sorry excuse for a gubernatorial candidate.

    When Walker wins, which he will, you will blast her and the party for railroading her into the nomination. That will be a fun day.
