Is the Falk campaign in trouble?

Is Kathleen Falk’s gubernatorial campaign in trouble?

At one point in the race Falk was thought to be the frontrunner (and inevitable nominee) in the Democratic gubernatorial recall primary, but since Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett’s entry into the race, Falk’s campaign seems to have started spinning its wheels. Yesterday I noted the Falk campaign’s futile [...]

The most delusional comment thread I’ve ever read

Over at Third Coast Digest, Michael Horne has an article noting former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi will be in Milwaukee on March 4 to attend a fundraiser for Democratic Rep. Gwen Moore, who faces what Horne calls “imaginary opposition.”

Horne’s “imaginary opposition” crack clearly sent conservatives into a tizzy, the comments following the [...]

Gwen Moore misses debt ceiling vote

To say the vote in the House earlier this week to approve the debt ceiling capitulation legislation was highly publicized and scrutinized would be an understatement. After Speaker John Boehner’s own debt ceiling legislation passed the House by a narrow margin and was promptly killed in the U.S. Senate, lawmakers worked hard to find some [...]

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver: I’d vote for debt deal, “punch myself in stomach, then throw up.”

“The debt ceiling will be raised… I won’t allow it not to be lifted… [I'd do what I have to do], then go home, punch myself in the stomach, then throw up.”

– Democratic Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, appearing on Hardball

For what it’s worth, Rep. Cleaver voted against the debt ceiling “compromise” legislation, so [...]

What do ramen noodles and mayonnaise sandwiches have to do with the right to choose? Ask Dan Sebring!

I’ll given Dan Sebring credit; he’s certainly not afraid to take a chance at offending voters. You’ll remember Sebring as the Republican “Tea Party” candidate who failed miserably in his quest to unseat Democratic Rep. Gwen Moore in 2010, but you may also remember Sebring from the press release he issued announcing his candidacy in [...]

Dan Sebring: if at first you don’t succeed, lose and lose again!

Apparently extreme far-right conservative Dan Sebring, not content with the electoral drubbing he received in his race against Democratic Rep. Gwen Moore in 2010, is primed for another run against Rep. Moore in 2012. You’ll remember Sebring ran as a write-in candidate in 2008 and was absolutely crushed by Rep. Moore in 2010, having received [...]

You scratch my back…I’ll scratch yours.

I have heard about this before, now it is starting to get some play. This from Redstate.com:

During the 2010 election cycle, Wisconsinites received a revelation: The members of our state’s congressional delegation, we learned, had an “Unwritten Rule.” According to Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R, 5th CD), members of said congressional delegation, Republicans and [...]
