The usual from our state's GOP...
Lie and cheat. :grr:

MADISON (AP) — Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald says he would run fake Democrats again in recall elections targeting GOP incumbents in order to give them more time to campaign.

Republicans used that tactic this summer in recalls targeting six GOP incumbents.

The Democratic Party says it will file paperwork on Tuesday to recall Republican Sens. Van Wanggaard of Racine, Terry Moulton of Chippewa Falls and Pam Galloway of Wausau. Fitzgerald said Monday he also expects to be targeted for recall.

2. By now it should come as no surprise that the GOP plays hardball
It'd be nice if Democrats would do the same.

5. Maybe run fake republicans in their primaries too, for starters
Make them pay the extra campaign moneys every once in a while, too. We need real campaign finance reform. What are we supposed to do until that happens, revel in our martyrdom?
