  • Democrats married an idiot!

    But he’s woke as an espresso grande! Someone posted a photo this morning of a grey fox in front of West high school. Know what’s an even more rare sight in Madison? A Ron Johnson lawn sign! Saw one just this morning — but it’s in front of Stately Blaska Manor, so it was hard…

  • Hey, flip flopper!

    Time for a little Mandela Barnes-storming! Blaska breakfasted with a committed Democrat Tuesday. Another cause to suspect your irascible host! He is already under fire among Republican party purgers for once citing CNN as a source. Even so, we noticed our breakfast companion was wearing a Mandela Barnes campaign button.

  • Are we not supposed to fear crime?

They have no urge to purge. Successful candidates (not you, Timothy Ramthun) understand elections are about addition and multiplication,…

  • Pissed-off Americans meet in Madison

    No pouty faces! Just returned from the Republican Second Congressional District caucus here in Madison this morning. Kevin Nicholson gave one of the worst speeches since Jimmy Carter wore the wool cardigan and told his TV audience to burn their furniture in the fireplace if they wanted to keep warm. (Deja vu all over again?)…
