"Still sucks that Walker had to drop out."
And it always will. But he'll get his Day In The Sun in Wisconsin politics, I'm sure. He's one of the Good Guys. It just wasn't his time, this time around. :(
I'd rather see Tommy in the Senate. Kohl is absolutely worthless, and Tommy could get so much done for our state, while kicking Feingold in the @ss every day, LOL! I'd love that, too.
Tommy's got a pretty big ego though and he HATES Doyle with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns. Another Governorship would set him up for the Presidency later on, and Tommy is very loyal to Wisconsin. He can't NOT see that his brother, Ed, was the reason we're stuck with Doyle right now. He may want to right that wrong as well. He's not one for unfinished business.
We'd be better off if Thompson ran for Senate, but I don't think he will. He'll run for governor, and probably win.
Another potential Senate seat down the drain.
Cheering you on from Missouri. It would be a service to the nation to get Kohl out of the Senate.
What type of chance would Green have against Kohl, if Tommy were to announce for Governor and endorse Green for Senate?
