Tim Michels is the most conservative of the three. He's much more articulate than Darrow, and a lot less equivocal in his positions.

Guess who the state "Pubbie" establishment won't support under any circumstances? :-(

I don't know about that, Steve.

If we show them that Michels can win by winning the primary - They'll get behind him.

I think they've lined up behind Darrow for one reason - Name recognition. No doubt, he's got a lot of it. But I think that Michels has a story that we can sell.

Seems to me they're pretty well split in the primary. Welch has a lot of establishment support as an insider (some of it kinda surprising), Darrow has his big two endorsements and Michels ain't raisin' the money he is without having appeal in the establishment.
