  • David Crowley is tainted!

    His honeymoon is over before it started. Wisconsin just elected a dishonest double dealer as its governor. David Crowley put up a Milwaukee County budget with a $4.56 million shortfall, knew about it two weeks before his election last week, and didn’t disclose the sleight of hand to his own county supervisors — or voters…

  • Shut up, Piggy!

    Republicans can’t win with their paranoids. My old boss Tommy Thompson is now saying what his itinerant speech writer blogged this week: Wisconsin is no longer a purple, battleground state. Worse, neither is Texas, apparently. Or Georgia and other states in the Deep South. We’re losing Iowa and Kansas, fer gawdsakes! The President’s worst legacy…

  • We won’t drink to that

    Coming to grips with mid-term defeat. A few observations: Can Wisconsin even be considered a purple state anymore? A battleground, swing state? Democrats control all three branches of government — including the state supreme court. The Marquette University poll got it right by predicting a 7-point David Crowley victory; the Democrat won the governorship by…

  • Out, damned spot

    America wasn’t tired of Donald Trump; it is sick of him. We don’t blame Donald Trump for the washout in Tuesday’s mid-term elections as much as we blame his enablers. His yes-men never brought the certifiably narcissistic head case to heel. They indulged the man’s worst instincts. They stymied their gag reflex, fearing his retribution.…

  • Battling for a political party’s soul

    Pilloried for calling out her party’s anti-semitic hate. Haley Stevens is on the side of the angels, Republicans are saying, while Liz Cheney remains condemned to perdition. Democrats reverse the polarity. Could be both were trying to save their political parties on the eve of their destruction. (🎶 Even the Jordan river has bodies floatin’.…

  • Bullhorns blow progressive baloney

    Thanks for reminding why we are Republicans! If Blaska were not already a Republican, the idiots picketing Tom Tiffany’s campaign appearance this Sunday 11-01-26 in Madison would make him one. A gaggle of bullhorn blowers chanted their rhyming slogans at volume 11 outside his event as if such juvenilia made the case for anything other…

‘The answer is Donald Trump’

Yes, there is a single, silver-bullet answer to the question, “Why did we get crushed?” … The answer is Donald Trump — specifically, the president’s shameful, erratic, often reckless, always self-absorbed, exhausting, in-your-face-24/7 second-term performance — reminding people nonstop of all the reasons they disliked him the first go-round, but this time without the perception of rising prosperity. …

I won’t even try to summarize Trump’s manic daily output of social media posts. Suffice it to say that they are habitually juvenile, profane, nasty, and self-aggrandizing (depicting him variously as Jesus Christ, a king, a crown-wearing fighter pilot defecating on his political critics, and so on). …

Republicans got their clocks cleaned this week because they made Trump the center of their universe.  — Andrew McCarthy in National Review
