MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is getting involved in a Wisconsin congressional race.
Palin on Wednesday announced that she was endorsing fellow Republican Sean Duffy in his race against Democratic incumbent U.S. Rep. Dave Obey.
Palin made the announcement on her Facebook page.
She calls Duffy a "brave soul" and a "daring David" who is taking on a "liberal Goliath."
Obey has been in Congress representing Wisconsin's 7th Congressional District since 1969. The 37-year-old Duffy has been the Ashland County district attorney since 2002, a professional lumberjack and a former cast member on the 1997 MTV reality show "The Real World Boston."
Palin urged people to donate to Duffy's campaign in her message.

Duffy is Wisconsin’s Scott Brown.

I am SO glad that Duffy’s money bomb was a huge success. I think he has a great chance of winning

Wish someone would post something specific on FR when there is a money bomb coming down - it’s getting real difficult to keep up with everything that is happening and where help is needed. Don’t have much to give but would certainly help when I can and when I feel it is worthwhile. I know about Rubio and DeVore - are there others?

I agree..I had no idea there was even a money bomb for him til Sarah posted it. Otherwise I would have had no idea. Can you give me the link to DeVore’s and Rubio’s..I didn’t know they have one too
To: mnehring
Sorry to hear that Sarah endorsed Duffy. There is another, more conservative man running against Obey,
Dan Mielke. I haven't made up my mind yet, but I'm leaning toward Mielke. Sean Duffy seems too slick - I don't trust him.

Thanks for the ping, lady! Getting rid of both Obey and Feingold would make this a GREAT year!
