U.S. Senate Recruitment --- A Series of Unfortunate Events
Today the Republican Party of Wisconsin suffered the fourth blow in nearly as many days with the announcement that Tim Michels will not challenge Herb Kohl for U.S. Senate this fall. Just yesterday shock waves moved through the state when WisPolitics issued an alert that Former Governor Tommy Thompson was taking his name off the list of possible candidates.
These latest events follow the death of GOP U.S. Senate hopeful Marcus Gumz and Dave Redick's recent conversion to Libertarianism, clearing the GOP primary field for Robert Gerald Lorge (a.k.a. the good Lorge).
Rocked by death, desertion and disinterest, Wisconsin Republican had little to celebrate today.

1) Redick didn't desert. He was chased off.
2) Tommy T's decision couldn't have surprised anyone but Mark Belling.
3) The party owes Tim Michels far more than he owes them.
The failure to post a viable candidate makes thin soup out of Democracy but it's hardly Earth-shattering.
I hear Alan Keyes is still available.
Redick wasn't chased off. He was a carpet-bagger that smelled from a mile away.
Redick was a moonbat, Lorge is a wingnut. The failure of the Wis GOP to field a credible candidate speaks volumes of the incompetency of Rick Graber.
The guy who assumed room temperature may be their best bet. He has more life in him than does Kohl.
