And Jim Doyle just made ethics a campaign issue. He couldn't attack Walker and Green for their connections to Jensen because of Rich's admissions to the John Doe. Now, he can take the gloves off and trash Green and Walker without the reprisals (in his mind).
Also quite the rise for the Doyle loyalists. Schoof was one of the few Legislative Dems to endorse and stick with Doyle through thick and thin. From Assemblyman to Admisitrator to Executive Assistant to Political Director to Campaign manager. All in just over a year and a half. It pays to carry the Governor's water.
Not sure I agree with Comment #1. Can Doyle really be that clueless? Wouldn't you think he'd have to do a lot of hallucinating to come up with anything significant that would stick to Green or Walker for more than a day? Graul-gate has pretty much died. And what, if anything, could you ever say about Pfaff? Workaholic, yes...but extremely clean.
Maybe more to the point, there's a small matter of a pending pay for play investigation/indictment in the administration.
Bringing in the clean nosed kid to be the face of the campaign is a fine idea, but it in no way gives the guy latitude to swing away on ethics.
Don't look now, but the DPW is trying to dredge up Graul-gate, etc. again. Wonder what they are smoking?!
