Barrett is not dumb enough to run. He knows that with Walker as his opponent, the best he can hope for is to split Milwaukee County, and if a Dem can’t get big margins in Madison and Milwaukee, he can’t win the state.
Barrett must have watched the returns last night and seen Deeds and Corzine get wiped out. After those two debacles, he can see that Obama will be 0 help to him in winning the state. Obama’s coattails from 2008 will be an albatross around the neck of any Dem running in 2010.
Anyone else in your neck of the woods interested in running for Governor on the ‘D’ ticket? There’s no chatter in the Madistan area...at ALL.
