3-2 – Tommy jumps into the governor’s race to push Mark Green out
3-2 – Tommy doesn’t appear on any ballot
4-1 – Tommy takes on Nobody’s Senator, Herb Kohl
If Tommy announces his decision Sunday like the Journal Sentinel is reporting he likely will (even-money odds on that), look for it to be to enter the governor’s race. If he does, I’ll bet that 3/4ths of the original Green Team will abandon Mark Green and call him “too conservative” (remember, they already did that to Scott Walker successfully).
For the record, I do not want Tommy anywhere near the governor’s section of the ballot. He’s a great campaigner, and he did have some decent ideas (W2, School Choice), but he’s a tax-and-spender first, last and always. Wisconsin doesn’t need one of those, especially now.
