Republicans for Lautenschlager

Yesterday, Republican Attorney General candidate JB Van Hollen had an editorial posted on Wisopinon.com about Democratic candidate for Attorney General Kathleen Falk's pioneering initiatives to better treat substance abusers and save taxpayer dollars by keeping the non-violent ones from clogging up the jail system. I'll post more later on why his editorial is an unbelievable display of how little he knows about the justice system as a whole (like he seems to believe that his office budget pays for housing prisoners), but for now let's ponder something else.

Does Attorney General Peg Lautenschlager's campaign realize just how badly the Republicans want her in the race instead of Falk? This editorial attacking the challenger in the Democratic primary instead of the incumbent over six months ahead of the race should give them some clue.
