Source: Associated Press

VIROQUA, Wis. (AP) - The Democratic Party headquarters in downtown Viroqua (vir-OH'-kwa) has been vandalized for the second time in less than a month.

3. i have driven a lot of miles through southern wisconsin
in the last 40 years and it`s some of the greatest scenery in the midwest. it`s called god`s country for that reason.but some of it`s inhabitants are not what one could call angels.

5. Used to live near-bye when I was a kid
Shipped up to the norther wasteland from the city to straighten me out.
It's not a place for a long haired city kid with liberal thoughts flowing through
his head and just the name of that place brings back bad memories.

Gotta tell ya one thing for sure, I'm surprised there EVEN WAS a Democratic
Headquarters in that place. So things must be looking up even with the vandalism :)

8. 17% in Wisconsin believe country is on right track.
A record-low seventeen percent of Wisconsin voters think the country is going in the right direction, according a new poll conducted by the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute, a right-leaning public policy think tank.

Uppity Wisconsin

9. I'm blaming Brett Favre
No, I don't have any evidence, but I'm just damn tired of hearing about him, so the hell with it.

I thought the state's racial history was one of the best.
