Tommy Thompson embodies everything that is wrong with the Stupid Party.

Tommy Thompson was a very successful governor. His welfare reform applied conservative principles to the problem of dependency and became a model for the nation.

"....and Hovde, who made his millions as a Washington, D.C.-based hedge fund manager,"

Good night! A hedge fund manager running for the Senate in a northern state in this climate...now THAT's an uphill climb.

"Is Tommy nimble enough to pivot to the right and position himself as a staunch conservative?" said Charles Franklin, Marquette University Law School political scientist. "That's what we're waiting to see."

Sounds like he's wondering if he's two old to be a ballet dancer.

Hey, we don't want pivoting and positioning for the cameras. We want real action.

“Thompson embodies everything that is wrong...”
Agree totally. Having lived through his terms as gov, he is exactly what the problem is with old school RINOs. My taxes went up just as fast under him, as with Doyle.

I cringe at his ads on local radio.

Agree. I've taken a “no RINO” pledge, they are guaranteed to sell you out every time.
