I’m glad I didn’t skew the results. I know I didn’t vote before 5PM.

I must be suffering from storm and flood fatigue or something — too much stress and too little sleep.

I need to relax. Maybe I should go golfing.

So Doyle is bad for fundraising on Tuesday, but its alright for Walker to? We haven’t seen a single blogger on the right take a look at your own presumptive nominee:

From Xoff:

So, what was the unannounced Republican candidate for governor doing on Tuesday? Milwaukee County Exec Scott Walker was in Hayward and Rhinelander, raising money for a GOP State Senate candidate, Tom Tiffany — and collecting some political IOUs for his campaign for gov.

Tuesday’s calendar from WisPolitics:

Lunch with 12th SD candidate Tom Tiffany 6/10/2008 12 p.m. Lumberjack Steakhouse, 15860 T-Bone Lane, Hayward. County Executive Scott Walker $25 suggested minimum contribution PAC Accepted

Reception with 12th SD candidate Tom Tiffany 6/10/2008 5 p.m. Wisconsin River Cruises, 913 W. Kemp St., Rhinelander. Special Guest: County Executive Scott Walker $25 suggested minimum contribution PAC Accepted

The campaign unofficially kicks off in a week, when Walker shamlessly takes another taxpayer-financed motorcycle ride to every media market in the state, ostensibly to promote Milwaukee tourism, but really to get his mug on TV as he starts to run for 2010.

Should we do a poll about what to do with the money he raised for Tiffany?

Walker and Doyle were together, by the way, at a Monday news conference on Milwaukee County flooding, before Walker headed north to raise political money. And there were more than a few problems in Milwaukee County that Walker left behind.

Double standard, anyone?

Priebus stole that idea from me–

See Asian Badger’s post on the topic and my comment.

Results weren’t skewed. The count was 1 before you voted, and it was 1 afterwards (unless you voted before 5 pm).

I need to take a mulligan.

I think I miscast my vote.

I meant to vote for “He should, but he’ll hang onto all the money.” Instead, I voted for “He shouldn’t, and won’t donate any of the money.”

Sorry about skewing the poll results.
