Randy Koschnick did not announce that he is hiring Darrin Schmitz, who helped run Gableman's campaign - he just received advice from this political consultant. Sounds like a wise decision to me. Schmitz would be one person who knows what Koschnick can expect if he does decide to run. There is more information in the printed copy of this article found in the October 9th edition.

Concerning hiring Darrin Schmitz and partisans: Sounds like a good idea to hire someone who can advise you that has been through the process before. That does not mean that the campaign will be run in the same manner. The only way of obtaining experienced consultants and managers of a state-wide campaign is to either hire former supreme court justice campaigners or governor/senate campaigners, which would be partisan. There will be criticism of these decisions. That is to be expected. Judge Koschnick is a good man - intelligent, thoughtful, well spoken, honest, and fair. I believe him when he says he wants a clean campaign. I have known him for over 15 years. I don't know of a better person for the job.
