He had an excellent record on the right to life, as governor.
Re: Tommy
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Tommy promised to complete his last term as Gov. and then quit to go to Washington to run HHS. We forgave him for that, but:
Tommy “invited” terrorists to attack our food supply in his farewell speech when he left HHS at the end of Bush’s 1st term “because it would be so easy”. Stupid and dangerous blunder.
Tommy has interfered in every election since he left HHS, thus preventing conservatives from running by fielding the idea that he might be running again — or his brother might be running. Then he drops out before the election, after he’s spent months sucking up all the money and hamstringing the other candidates.
Tommy interfered with Scott Walker’s candidacy in 2006, thus giving us a Dem Gov for 4 years.
Tommy refused to back his own Lt. Gov. (McCallum) when he ran for re-election in 2002. He toyed with the voters because his brother wanted to run, thus giving us a Dem Gov. for 4 years.
Tommy has rebuffed every invitation from the WisGOP to run for Senate over the past 10 years.
Tommy joined Tom Daschle to back Obamacare when it was first passed. Now he says he doesn’t like it. Do I trust him to repeal it? No.
Tommy has been a great proponent of man-made global warming taxes.
Tommy has been a proponent of ethynol in our gas. Now he says he doesn’t approve of it, but he made a lot of money from it during the Doyle (Dem) administration.
Tommy has favored the Cap and Trade Tax in the past. A bad idea.
IMHO Tommy would not be a much better Senator than Herb Kohl has been.
