No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Endorsement time – the winter edition

Sorry about not following the races as much as I should. I should know better than to trust the presstitutes to do so. Anyway, let’s get rolling:

– There is one statewide race that, despite the silence, is a doozy. It is a 3-way battle for an open seat on the Wisconsin State Supreme Court, one that will decide whether the Lawgivers-In-Black will still have to depend on turncoat Patrick Crooks or gain an absolute majority. In the right corner (at least by default), we have Washington County Circuit Judge Annette Ziegler. In the far-left corner, we have the Jim “Craps” Doyle (WEAC/Potawatomi-For Sale) candidate, Linda Clifford. Out of left field, we have a defense lawyer trying to get a vote on the pending suspension of his law license (and endorsed by Cousin Ed Thompson), Joseph Sommers.

Fortunately, GOP3 has been doing my homework for me. Like Brandon, I am endorsing Annette Ziegler in the primary tomorrow, and will be repeating this in the general election should she survive.

One more thing; while I can’t quite agree with Brandon and the letter-chucking Brad V that there is a “reverse” gender gap, the fact that the unknown Nick Voegeli got as close as he did against the relatively-well-known Jean Hundertmark is strong circumstantial evidence. Of course, outside of the Pubbie insiders, very few people knew that Hundertmark was running either, and there were a lot of non-insiders in the primary.

– The third aldermanic district in Oak Creek (my new district) also has a primary. I’m endorsing Mark Verhalen as he is the only person who is talking tax cuts.
