There are a lot of Democrats running to unseat incumbent Republican Gov. Scott Walker this year.
Some of those candidates are more credible than others, but each brings strengths and weaknesses to the table. What I’d like to know is who you’re supporting and why I should support your candidate, because thus far I’m undecided […]
This time it comes from a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article on the dire straits that family dairy farms continue to suffer here in Wisconsin. I don’t have an answer for that issue and I wish I had. But one thing they shouldn’t have added to their issues…is pulling one of the family off the […]
Paul Ryan Didn’t Quit Because of Randy Bryce
Please let’s not get overconfident about the election in the Wisconsin First Congressional District. There have already been emails and postings that Paul Ryan quit because he was afraid of the campaign being waged by one of Blogging Blue’s favorite candidates: Randy Bryce. There have been dozens of post-mortems on why Ryan quit, but Randy […]
Paul Ryan Open Thread
Well almost an open thread…but I really would like your thoughts on his decision to not run for re-election, what you think will happen in the First District, and where is Paul heading next?
Paul Ryan is abandoning the ship before it sinks!
One can hardly imagine a more obvious signal that Ryan fears […]
This is just silly and we shouldn’t still be talking about this (and Rep. Dale Kooyenga agrees) but when someone should just apologize for doing something stupid and get on with life, well he can’t resist getting as silly as he possibly can (Why Am I Paying For This? Or You For That Matter?).

Wisconsin taxpayers will spend $30,000 to settle a lawsuit brought against state Rep. Dale Kooyenga after he removed a protest sign critical of Republicans from a public area of the Capitol.
Kooyenga, a Brookfield Republican now running for […]
After losing his court battle to delay holding special elections for an open legislative seat and a senatorial seat THREE TIMES, Governor Scott Walker relented and called for the special elections. And the legislature called off passage of the special bill they were working on to change the rules around special elections.
But amid all […]
Earlier this month I called bullshit on Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s failure to hold special elections to fill vacant legislative seats after appointing GOP legislators to administrative positions (Walker Sued Over Elections, His Excuse?)
The arguments involved are: under the one voter one vote rule, Wisconsin residents aren’t being represented in Madison as long […]
What Does Common Sense Gun Control Change Look Like?
There a number of things that would help prevent mass shootings similar to those repeatedly experienced in the United States. And no, nothing will eliminate all gun violence, but something needs to be done to make Americans feel safer in public places…not just schools.
First, comprehensive background checks of all buyers in all sales. There […]
Walker Sued Over Elections, His Excuse?
I have to call out bullshit on this one. Two Republican members of the state legislature in Madison resigned their seats in December to take positions in the Walker administration. The governor has not called for special elections to fill those vacant seats, because it would be too expensive and a burden on the […]
