Mark Neumann is not a conservative. He is a RINO.

Pretty hard for me to support Neumann after what he did to Walker (and therefore, Wisconsin).

Yep, there is a lot of that going on.

It looks like he pretty much went overboard running against Walker. Sad

Was it not clear from your earlier thread that Wisconsin FReepers - and most of the Wisconsin Tea Party movement - do not support Neumann?

You’re backing the wrong pony, Syncro. You did the same thing in Nebraska with Bruning.

You are correct, sir! Neumann has pockets of support in Janesville and rural areas not served by local conservative talk radio.

Fitzgerald.
Hovde.
Thompson.
Neumann.

In that order of preference.

We’re close. Thompson is too dang old. We need someone who can serve more than one term.

Fitzgerald
Hovde
Neumann
Thompson

Many of the establishment types get hung up supporting the same old politicians they have known for years. Bill McCollum, Mark Neumann, Don Stenberg... same phenomenon happened with Newt Gingrich for president. The 80's/90's contingent was stuck in nostalgia.

Often the grassroots are ready to give someone new a shot and the establishment - conservatives who have been in high level politics for 5 or 10 or 30 years and think they're not establishment - is several steps behind.

It's clear to me that Eric Hovde is out best candidate in the primary and general. I won't say he's Ron Johnson II, since that's a tall order, but he's the kind of successful businessman & citizen legislator we could use more of.

That's a principled selection for you.

If he was capable of winning the primary, I'd vote for Fitzgerald.

But unless the other 3 candidates are found naked in bed with a live boy or dead girl in the next 8 days, Fitz has no chance.

I'm voting for Hovde.

The reason I listed Neumann dead last instead of Thompson is simple... Neumann is the one candidate who has the best chance of losing. Of 7 races he has run, he has only won 2, the last being in 1996, and that one was only with 51% (and 49% in his prior win). He was a very weak candidate in the ‘90s and hasn’t improved his standing. Thompson could at least win with a comfortable margin, but he is too old, as you said.

Somebody said that Gov. Walker may openly endorse Fitzgerald, which could change the dynamic. I’d wait to see until the final days of the race whether to go with him or Hovde (if Fitz moves up in the polls).

Thanks for weighing in!

You’re being a schmuck again. I had to drag you practically kicking and screaming into realizing you were wrong in Nebraska. You should listen to others here about this race, otherwise you’re just trolling.

Would be interesting to see if Walker will support Fitz. I heard that Scott doesn’t like Neumann at all.

Everyone keeps saying that Fitz can’t win but if we all voted for him, he would. duh.

It would be an extremely stupid political move for Scott to make any endorsement before the primary. And he's not stupid.

The race is just too close. If he doesn't pick the winner, it's all bad. He'll look weak to the Democrats AND the general electorate. It could cost regaining control of the state Senate. He would look weak nationally and damage any chance at higher office. Walker will look like he can't find the pulse of the state and will make at least 3 political enemies (4 enemies if Baldwin wins the seat).

And for what? There's no benefit to Walker. If he picks correctly, there's NOTHING the primary winner would or could give Scott that wouldn't be given if Scott waited until after the primary to endorse.

Anyone who advises Walker to make a decision now needs to be beaten repeatedly with a big sharp stick and should be forever barred from ever paticipating in government advocacy again.

My guess is that Fitzgerald's people are floating the rumor. Walker is doing Fitz a favor by not shooting it down.

You are wrong again, but you like the petty namecalling don’t you? Your nasty attitude is carrying over from your frustation with the Nebraska race because everyone doesn’t think like you do.

But then you do think of yourself as an authortarian.

I had to give up on your whining that I was comparing Neumann Cruz, your desire to pitch attacks stronger than your reading comprehension.

Now trolling, LOL!

Your on a roll, Spiderman.

You are cold and you think everyone else should be also, literally.
