Spanky:
My guess is that they were all pretty liberal. I'm sure if there was debate among the 3 you heard the same old talking points, and heard Bush mentioned to no end. This will be a wipe out in November. It's not a matter of if Ryan wins, just a matter of the margin. If anyone does not believe that I will gladly put my $$ where my mouth is.

Dr Talk:
Yeah they work great when you know the person is a cook. Just see what signs they have out, and vote the opposite way! You can try to vote Caldwell banker if you like, but they me be broke come November the way the mortgage market is!

Interesting kiowamohican,
So people do actually vote based on yard signs. In November I plan on voting for Coldwell-Banker.

You voted for Krupp was the right pick if you wanted a liberal. She was on the radio yesterday and in her first sentence she said Haliburtain. Enough said.

I'm still offering action on anyone who wants....uhhhh, what's her name?....Krupp. I'll give you 2/1 odds, or you can name what odds you want.

I actually voted in the primary yesterday, LOL. I wanted to pick the candidate who was the biggest far left nut job of the bunch! I really did not know who that was? This however is where yard signs come in GREAT! A guy down the street from me is a BIG TIME lefty. I mean this guy would put a Fidel Castro sign in his yard if he were running! Well, he had a Garin sign in his yard, so I took 10 minutes out of my day and voted Garin baby!

I'm a full-time college student receiving federal student loans, and I am voting for Paul Ryan.

Sure thing, BillyRay. What, exactly, is it that Ryan "rocks"? He sure does "rock" at voting to cut financial aid to college students. He sure "rocked" at increasing interest rates on federal loans for college students.

I hope Krupp can get her hands on some campaign funds and give Ryan a run for his money. I'd love to see Ryan lose.

Marge, First I am so sorry for you and your family for the loosing of your brother.

Next, it is about time someone will run against this gold spooned boy who never had a job in his life other than to hang around washington. His family is super wealthy from his grandfather's road construction business and that is exactly how he got his start with financial and innfluential push to get into congress in the first place. He has turned his back on the working poor, health insurance for all even though we furnish him with a great plan, against minimum wage increase, and you name it if it has anything to do with holding down or getting rid of the middle class he's for it. He is a Bush puppet who needs to be removed. Where is he for all you local 95 members huh? He voted to keep jobs going overseas. Check out megavote.com and you can get his record. He is against everything but keeping the rich from getting richer. I for one am going to try to find out how to help Marge in every way possible to defeat Ryan.

lakennedy,

No, Ryan did not speak at the convention.

Off topic, but what the hey:

Does anyone know if Ryan spoke at the RNC this year? I know he was there last election, just wondering.

*shrug* That happens, billnewbie. Heck, if you've ever been a poll worker, you get voters who stroll in and ask for information about the candidates and their positions.
.
Of course, I live in a country that has been run by a boob for eight years, so you can't say I have great confidence in the wisdom of the electorate.

Congratulations, Marge! Give Paul a run for his money, for once.

This is such an exciting year on the political front, both nationally and locally. My congratulations to Marge for winning the primary for her party. My condolences also go to Marge for the loss of her brother.

According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, John Mogk received 655 votes. Either he has a huge family or at least 600 District 1 voters used the "eine meine miney mo" method of candidate selection. Good thing that vote total was smaller than the margin of victory.
