Harkin, at age 84, is still doing very well. He’s been out of the Senate now for nearly 10 years, having stepped down after choosing not to run in the 2014 election. Interestingly, the former Democratic senator isn’t depressed by the stark change in Iowa politics in just the past decade or so.
Kennedy has proven he will do almost anything, including this quixotic leap of name-dropping, to be relevant.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, examine how and why the principles and priorities of the Republican and Democratic parties in Wisconsin have evolved over time. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.

Capacity considered as district seeks $252 million in April referendum.
What voters need to know.
Mayor Cavalier Johnson is missing the key way to grow the city.
Unless Americans are willing to accept the lost lives of many thousands to suicides and mass shootings in our schools, churches, theaters and shopping centers so that a minority of citizens can buy, sell and shoot lethal weapons, they need to replace the politicians who cower before the gun fanatics.
Roosevelt welcomed the hatred of the plutocrats—and won a landslide. Biden should take note.
Regardless of which political party we call home or how we personally feel about Speaker Robin Vos, we should all have a lift in our footsteps knowing the absurdity perpetrated by the base of Donald Trump supporters was not allowed to make it to the ballot box.
