Background:

Wisconsin Democrats oust delegate over McCain support

By RYAN J. FOLEY • Associated Press Writer • July 25, 2008


MADISON — Wisconsin Democrats on Friday ousted a delegate to their national convention for saying she would vote for Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain in November.

Embarrassed by a defection in their ranks, the Wisconsin Democratic Party’s administrative committee voted 23-0 to strip Debra Bartoshevich of her status as a delegate to the Denver convention next month.

Bartoshevich was elected by party activists as a pledged delegate for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton from the 1st Congressional District in southeastern Wisconsin. But after Clinton dropped out of the race, Bartoshevich told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel she would support McCain over Democratic Sen. Barack Obama.

The June comments by the 41-year-old nurse and mother of two from Waterford were seized on by the McCain campaign as evidence of his appeal to former Clinton backers. Within hours, the Wisconsin Democratic Party passed a resolution at its state convention supporting a challenge of her position with the national committee.

7. My guess is she was following orders from Heir Limbaugh
he did instruct his cronies to try to get into the DNC as delegates. I'm guessing there will be more.. they will be easy to spot as soon as they cast their roll call votes for Hillary.. if they even make it that long. They may pick fights with democrats on the convention floor just to make Rush Limpballs happy.
