The Wisconsin Republican Party is attempting to re-brand itself as a more inclusive entity. They are co-opting traditional Democratic strategies like opening a whole bunch of campaign offices in Wisconsin, voter registration efforts and block captain organizing – [...]

Walker gubernatorial campaign and WI GOP hire target of John Doe investigation

This should not surprise anyone… A former aide to Gov. Scott Walker who has pleaded guilty to felony misconduct in office has been on the payroll of Walker’s campaign and the state Republican Party, according to a court document filed Friday.

Kelly M. Rindfleisch was charged in January with doing fundraising and other campaign work [...]

A Thought on Lincoln Republican Arthur Kohl-Riggs Campaign for Governor

When I first encountered the Arthur Kohl-Riggs campaign for governor running as a Republican, I thought it was a joke. I’ve been paying attention since then and of course he’s gotten short shrift from the official media and bloggers alike. But after watching this video, whether you take his campaign seriously or not, I have [...]

But… but… but…. WE’RE BROKE!

A little more on the alleged voter caging effort

The egg on RPW’s face is getting harder to wipe off

What a bad move to make a surprise endorsement like the one delegates made for Ron Johnson. It’s been getting worse by the week in terms of credibility and overall respect of the public towards a candidate running for office. Just this morning, Zach had a post linking to a Republican blog criticizing Johnson’s position [...]

Yeah, there’s no hypocrisy there!

To say Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott Walker is a hypocrite would be an understatement.

At a press conference alongside big-bucks campaign donor Fred Luber on Wednesday, Walker attacked Democratic gubernatorial candidate Tom Barrett for helping to bring new jobs to Milwaukee, and the Republican Party of Wisconsin, eager to carry water for Walker, issued a [...]
