  • 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.…

Not answering candidate questionnaires might not even be the most important. But it is one of them. We continue to be…

We’re waiting for the Democrats’ denunciation of the Corey Ruiz Autonomous Zone. Former alder Brenda Konkel, until recently co-chair of Progressive Dane, is currently executive…

  • We sense a political Hong-over!

    Democrats are clinking their worry beads. Blaska puts his money where his mouth is, albeit, not proportionately. (We’re not LOADED!) We put one whole dollar down on a bet that Francesca Hong gets 39.5 percent of the vote Tuesday 08-11-26 in the Democrat(ic) primary for governor. Enough to edge out (with a plurality) a too-little, too-late…
