Wisconsin Recall: Hope Remains While the Company Is True

By

May 14, 2012
Scott Walker tells billionaire donor Diane Hendricks about his strategy to "divide and conquer" Wisconsin workers. The two were talking at a 2010 Rock County 5.0 event.

A few weeks ago I went with a friend to Miller Park a couple of hours before the start of a Brewers game to gather signatures to help Kathleen Vinehout get her name on the ballot for the May 8 recall primary. Being a dyed-in-the-wool introvert, I had never done anything like this before....

Occupy the GOP: Art for Gov May 8

Endorsements for candidates in posts here do not represent the opinions of all regular contributers, blue cheddar, or the blog’s many guest writers. As I wrote earlier, of the four Democratic candidates vying to face Walker in the June 5 Wisconsin Recall election, my pick is Kathleen Vinehout, who has said this on more...

Wisconsin Recall: Vinehout’s the Real Deal

Endorsements for candidates in posts here do not represent the opinions of all regular contributers, blue cheddar, or the blog’s many guest writers. I spent most of Wednesday afternoon reading up on Kathleen Vinehout, in part because she’s the Democratic gubernatorial challenger I find most compelling, in part because a blogger I very much...

Wisconsin Recall: Shooting the Moon

In his desperation to stay in office, Governor Scott Walker is throwing huge sums of bad money after more bad money. In fact, the only thing he has going for him is moola, most of it from out of state. Well, that, and a “quirk in state law” that enables a politician being targeted...

Did you see this headline in the Washington Post last week? Scott Walker Leads in Wisconsin Recall Poll I bet I wasn’t the only one who felt slightly sick upon reading that. The article mentions in passing that “the Democratic race has yet to really heat up.” Ya think? The signatures are still being...

Dear Russ, We know you have said repeatedly that you would not run for public office in 2012, and we have tried repeatedly to respect and honor that. But over and over again the idea comes sailing back, that the one person who would be best for Wisconsin in this exceptional historical moment, for...

Wisconsin Set to Throw the Republicans Out

According to Andrew Feldman’s Christmas Eve opinion piece in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, “Despite Democrats’ massive protests and their success at gathering recall signatures, most Wisconsinites did not appear to be in a ‘throw the Republicans out’ mood in 2011. If they had been, Supreme Court Justice David Prosser would be out of a job...

“WSJ props up Rickert, a debacle of a writer, held together by a mixture of idiocy and delusion”

A word from Joe Vittie on an article that appeared in Wisconsin State Journal and it’s author, Chris Rickert. No one has ever attended a demolition derby to in order to witness excellence in driving, or to enjoy the beauty of automotive design. Neither does one read a Chris Rickert column to find...

Today while some Americans celebrated the 20th annual “Buy Nothing Day”, avid recall volunteers took advantage of the Black Friday shopping traffic. I checked out a few of these spots in Madison and a couple regular haunts but there was no drama to report –unless you count the occasional middle finger salute from a...

The rock tosser of Atwood Street may have alarmed people by shooting a rock into The Victory coffee shop. But that’s where the negatives both begin and end. When I came by today the place was packed with people, recall petition circulators were constantly busy, and the food case was bare – - we...

Check out the recall office map! View Recall Offices in a larger map I tweeted this google map and a couple folks were sad to not see more offices farther north. If you’re in that camp, don’t despair. There are lots of events that will show up on the WisDems site (below) that won’t...

To Scott Walker, Actually we are willing and able to help YOU move on. Did you need a hand?

  Walker is saying we’re just not that into recalls. “People are ready to move on,” Walker said in an interview after an appearance in Washington, D.C. I think the people are ready to help Republicans move on OUT of the Capitol.  I for one will agree to assist in the disposal of any...

A Wisconsin status check.

I’m going to do the impossible and give a status check on all of Wisconsin politics. It might help the out-of-stater who is perhaps just now turning his or her attention from Anthony Weiner’s umm… tweets…and back to really important stuff like what is happening in my state. Wisconsin is hot again. Maybe too...
