No, Scottie, just in jail. Or, at minimum, out of public office.

The governors prospects for re-election likely will be complicated by an ongoing investigation into allegations of corruption among county workers during Mr. Walkers time as the Milwaukee County executive.
The Associated Press reported Wednesday that two people, including a close aide to Mr. Walker when he served as county executive, were arrested on felony theft charges Thursday.
Kevin Kavanaugh, Mr. Walkers appointee to the Milwaukee County Veteran Service Commission, was charged with one felony embezzlement charge of taking more than $10,000 from a business and four felony counts of fraudulent writings by a corporate officer.
Great. "They want him dead" is going to be their new talking point.
ugh.

(27,464 posts)I'd like to see him out of office and jailed, but dead? Nah. I don't care that much about him personally to give a crap what happens to him after his political career turns to dust.
