Related: About this forumThe right-wing attacks on Jon Richards: what are they worried about? (Blogging Blue)
http://bloggingblue.com/2014/03/the-right-wing-attacks-on-jon-richards-what-are-they-worried-about/Earlier this week, right-wing propagandists at Media Trackers and Right Wisconsin posted two attacks on Democratic Attorney General candidate Jon Richards. While the attacks against Richards focused on two different issues, its notable (at least to me) that the attacks seemed coordinated, as they were posted just hours apart on the same day. The attacks also come as Im hearing rumors about polling that doesnt look good for Republican Attorney General candidate Brad Schimel if matched against Jon Richards in the general election.
****************************
I think Jon Richards is a major threat to the Koch Brigade! He will be politically assaulted from now until the election!

Just imagine the fun a Peg Lautenschlager would have been having with the Walker Gang the past few years.
