CRG “assisting” with another likely failed recall
The CRG Network, backers of failed (or aborted) recall efforts in Wauwatosa and Cudahy, not to mention the failed effort to recall Gov. Jim Doyle, have announced they’ve been contacted to provide assistance to form a citizens group to explore the possibility of a recall effort against City of Milwaukee…
Failed “Recall Doyle” group takes credit for Doyle not running again
Despite not collecting a SINGLE signature in their effort to recall Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle, and despite their recall effort dying a quick and quiet death, the folks at WIN (led by Vince Schmuki) are “claiming victory” as reports indicate Gov. Doyle won’t seek reelection in 2010. As The Chief…
Sullivan recall fails, is CRG yesterday’s news?
As first reported by WisPolitics.com’s Milwaukee Notes, the effort to recall State Senator Jim Sullivan has failed. According to Orville Seymer of the CRG Network, the recall effort failed after the plan to recall Sen. Sullivan was not fully implemented, resulting in the recall effort petering out. The plan, according…
Effort to recall Doyle: epic failure
A few weeks ago, I wrote about how the movement to recall Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle seemed to be losing steam, and today my theory was proven correct, as the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is reporting Wisconsinites Interests Now (WIN) is now focusing on removing the governor from office in November…
The Recall Doyle movement: a bastion of tolerance, part deux
Last week I blogged about a supporter of the “Recall Doyle” movement using some “interesting” language in referring to illegal immigrants as pigs. As a followup to that entry, I’m happy to report user “Cutiebear0730” has confirmed she really doesn’t like minorities. In response to it being noted her comments…
Wigderson knows best….
…at least when it comes to the issue of CRG’s attempted recall of State Sen. Jim Sullivan: “Recalls should be when there is demonstrable misconduct in office.” Recalls shouldn’t be abused as a means of settling a partisan grudge, nor should they be used to remove an elected official for…
The Recall Doyle movement: a bastion of tolerance!
As I surf the intertubes, I often find myself wandering onto conservative blogs and news sites, sometimes to find out what conservatives are talking about, and other times just for the sheer entertainment value. As I was checking out the website for the “Recall Doyle” effort, I came across this…
CRG supports recall of Sen. Jim Sullivan
In a move that surprises no one, the group Citizens for Responsible Government (CRG) is supporting a recall of State Sen. Jim Sullivan. Earlier today, CRG issued a press release announcing the recall effort, and in their press release they compared the recall effort to the efforts of our nation’s…
CRG: Recall an opportunity to buy an election
Chris Kliesmet of the Citizens for Responsible Government has a really, really good reason for wanting to recall Gov. Jim Doyle: 4. Lastly, here is a less savory technical reason for implementing a recall. Recalls are exempt from state campaign finance personal donation limits. Individuals can donate to recall actions…
I’ve come to the realization…
…that the whole movement to recall Jim Doyle is really nothing more than an attempt by the Citizens for Responsible Government to stay relevant, given their lack of success at doing anything meaningful following the Milwaukee County pension scandal.
