Scott Walker voluntarily gives back almost 50% of his salary his first six years in office…totalling about $360,000. He then opts to scale back his voluntary pay cut to about $10,000 per year. Seems to me Walker was leading by example well before he demanded any sacrifice from anyone else in County government. How hard would [...]

I think almost any DEM could do that against Neumann (and Belling agrees), but I do not know any DEM who could pull those numbers against Walker, including Barrett. I'm interested in the bolded line (added by me), which isn't true. Let's go...

Night Falls Over Kortedala sounds effortless. It glides like a kite of angel wings on a soft summer breeze, all twinkling keys, kettle drum rolls, soaring strings and Lekman’s glorious croon. It belies the difficult genesis of the record. Three years in the making, the songs were honed live, written and rewritten until they sparkled. Lekman was so disenchanted at one point that he talked of retirement....

Now that Gov. Jim Doyle is moving towards legislation to shift control of Milwaukee's schools to Milwaukee's Mayor, it'll be interesting to see how Scott Walker, the state's consummate spin artiste, will dance himself into a coherent position. He can't back Doyle, because Doyle is a Democrat and Milwaukee Mayor, another Democrat, is a potential Walker rival to succeed Doyle in 2010. But he can't oppose...

Conservative talk radio was just a twitter yesterday with the news that Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton would be dropping out of the race for Governor in Wisconsin. WISN’s Mark Belling in particular was quite over the top in predicting a “landslide” win for Republican Scott Walker several times on his show yesterday.
