Dailytakes to Become Political June 1
In the same spirit as the previously apolitical Mark Pocan, Dailytakes will become political beginning June 1.
As of June 1, I will unlink the blog to from any state website so that I can get political - talking about campaigns, electoral politics and the like.
I'll still keep you posted on state issues. But I will do it from my personal computer and not have it linked to any state web page. That way there are no "ethical" issues. Not that ethics seems to bother the Democrat governor or Democrat Attorney General.
So, Pocan's blog will 'become' political...
So, it wasn't political on April 25th when he posted:
A Marriage Made in Hell: TABOR and the GOP
Let's not forget his apolitical March 30th post:Legislature for Sale, Governor Doyle Isn't
Or the day before that, when he urged his apolitical readers to apoliticallyTell Governor Doyle to Veto the Anti-Consumer Rent-to-Own Bill
Mark Pocan has a good sense of humor. His latest claim that his blog hasn't been political is only further proof that he's a funny guy.I think what he meant to say is that he's going to be more of a shill for Dem challengers in the next few months and feels more comfortable linking to their sites off a blog not connected with his state office.
I have a hunch he'll still refer to himself as State Representative Pocan on the site.
Is that mixing government and politics?
Oh, my!

I think the really shocking thing is Pocan calls himself a LaFollette-type progressive. Don't you need the permission of Ed Garvey to invoke Fighting Bob?
It is about time you take the nonpartisan gloves off!
