Capper's Picks For THE Primary

Unless you live under a rock in a cave in the middle of nowhere, you already know that tomorrow is the mother of all primaries, where Wisconsinites across the state will pick their champions in an all out effort to claim our state back for the people and away from the insatiable corporate interests whose only interest is sucking our land and our lives dry for no other reason than to increase their own hoards of wealth.

As you already know, I'm in full support of Kathleen Falk to be our next governor.  She has the experience and the skill to restore the things that were taken from us and to make the state whole again.  This is why Falk is the only candidate to have the backing of a wide array of people, from environmentalists to women's advocacy groups as well as ethnic advocacy groups  and, yes, the unions.  Furthermore, she doesn't have all the vulnerabilities that Barrett has, which eliminates most of Walker's campaign strategy and forces him to have to run on his record, which we all know sucks sewage water.

For Lt. Governor, the only choice is Mahlon Mitchell.  He is a passionate man, a vibrant speaker and an intelligent leader.  He would be able to help lead  the state back on to the path of recovery and prosperity.

For Senate District 13, Lori Compas is who you want.  If there ever was a folk hero that came out of Fitzwalkerstan, it's Compas.  Without the support of the Democrats, she did what they said couldn't be done and put Scott Fitzgerald on notice by successfully recalling him.  She is running not because she wanted to, but because the people demand it.  It will be nice to have an honest voice in that seat instead of the corrupt, double-dipping Fitzgerald.

For Senate District 21, John Lehman is your man.

Way over in District 23, Kristen Dexter is the woman to back.

And up there in District 29, the smart voter will go with Donna Seidel.
