In “Two Minutes with Mitch” Madison radio personality Mitch Henck says Scott Walker and Tony Evers’ stances on funding Wisconsin roads could decide their contest for governor.
Electing Tony Evers is critical to future redistricting and a representative state Legislature.
The state legislature could consider a bill that would require a liquor license for serving alcohol at many private events if the Tavern League and its allies in the legislature have their way.
Evers would scrap tax break passed by Walker and Republicans. Will that help or hurt?
The 7 biggest financial failures by a not-so-fiscally conservative governor.
Gov. Scott Walker and Attorney General Brad Schimel know full well that if the lawsuit they’ve joined to declare Obamacare unconstitutional is successful, people with pre-existing medical conditions will not be covered by their insurance plans.
Phil Anderson is a factor in the governor’s race — not as the potential “spoiler” that those who always try to write off third parties might suggest, but as a hardworking candidate with a sharp critique of both major parties who has gained a reasonable measure of traction.

I bought a boat from a crusty engaged business owner who gave me a break on the price. He was also a proud Trump voter.
In the current political environment, perhaps Medicare Advantage for All should be called the Bush-Sanders Plan. It is a comprehensive national program — something Sanders and liberal Democrats want — combined with a buy-in program that includes consumer and physician choice and the competitive market efficiency promoted by Bush and Republicans.
Since Gov. Scott Walker’s initial announcement of the Foxconn deal he has been promising it will create 13,000 jobs. But anyone who remembers his promise back in 2010 to create 250,000 jobs during his first term in office knows to take such promises with a large grain of salt.
Political leaders looking for what not to do could learn so much from Foxconn deal.
