Barret isn't even campaigning in or near Madison!
From David Blaska's wonderful blog, Bring It!
The Democrats must pay for this recall! Send them the $16 million bill!Where in the world is Tom Barrett? Not in Madison, Wisconsin’s second-largest city.
After Tuesday’s Democrat(ic) primary, Blaska’s Bring It! asked when was the last time a Democratic politician for statewide office refused to campaign in Madison. The answer: “Wednesday,†the day after the primary, when Barrett famously blew off a planned, and announced, unity rally set for the Capitol.
Does Tom Barrett have any plans to set foot in the People’s Republic of Madison?
We asked his Dane County campaign office yesterday and they answered, “We do not have any information regarding that.†We called the Milwaukee state headquarters; they suggested they would get back to me. They took my name, meaning they won’t.
Barrett’s campaign website lists only events on May 22 in La Crosse and May 29 in Green Bay. (That’s a torrid pace, Tom. Slow down and live!)
WisPolitics lists no events anywhere in Dane County. Sing it with me: Where have you gone, Mayor Tom Barrett? Pink Dress Guy, Anarchy Man, Segway Jeremy, and Comrade Nichols turn their lonely eyes to you, woo woo woo.
