Via folkbum and MAL Contends comes this little nugget:


Recall target, Sen. Randy Hopper (R_Fond du Lac), talks a good game about family values.

But protesters outside the Hopper house this week in Fond du Lac were met by his wife who reportedly came out and told them: Hopper no longer lives there, but with his 25-year-old mistress in Madison.


No confirmation on whether the divorcing wife signed that petition to recall Hopper who represents Wisconsin Senate District 18. Hopper has been a close ally with Gov. Scott Walker whose
billionaire-funded attacks on Wisconsin families is drawing international attention and widespread condemnation.


Randy Hopper filed for divorce from his wife in August 2010, and it’s being reported his soon to be ex-wife will be signing a recall petition.

As for the claim by Hopper’s soon to be ex-wife that Hopper is living in Madison with his 25-year-old mistress, I’ve received unconfirmed reports the “other woman” is Valerie Cass, who as of this morning was a lobbyist for Persuasion Partners, Inc., a right-wing lobbying firm. According to her bio on Persuasion Partners’ website (which has since been removed from their site), prior to going to work for Persuasion Partners, Cass staffed the Senate Economic Development Committee, of which Sen. Randy Hopper happened to be a member.

I attempted to contact Valerie Cass to get any comment on the veracity of claims she’s in a relationship with Randy Hopper, but my email went unanswered, and as I mentioned above, any mention of Valerie Cass has been removed from the Persuasion Partners website this morning.


However, here’s a screenshot of Cass’ bio, as it appeared this morning on the Persuasion Partners website.

2. If he does not have a residence in his district then

he is in the senate illegally ........ time to question the man

but he is getting closer to the young voters

3. i wonder if mr hopper is still able to legally represent

fond du lac if he is really living in madison with his 25 year old girlfriend?
are wisconsin senators elected to represent their local constituents or are they elected "at large" so that his address does not matter?

4. Hopper hops around in other places not his home,

6. He should resign for not living in his jurisdiction, sleeping with lobbyists, & being a hypocrite

[abbeyco]

7. Hmmm..more rethug family values on display

who'd a thunk it - a repub Randy 'Bed' Hopper - his base must be so proud.

8. He filed for divorce last August

Which puts his affair in a somewhat different light.

That is, if he met the young woman after he filed. If she was the reason he filed, then the light doesn't change.
