I continue to think that We Are Wisconsin was really just a RECALL organization and not much going forward. I think the Democratic Party of Wisconsin is going to have to be fixed by the activists in order to see any real change in election results going forward.

My problem with Mary Burke, is not Mary Burke herself. Its that the sole purpose of picking Mary Burke is because the DPW was not confident it could find small donors for a different candidate. Now the latest campaign goal of Mary Burke is to raise 70K? I thought the entire point was that she would self fund her campaign.

I just look at the job the Minnesota DFL is doing compared to Wisconsin's DPW and its just about as different as the way our states are being run. If you compare the websites even it looks like the Minnesota DFL has a lot more information on current issues, activist tool kit, Current Copy of Constitution and By Laws. The Wisconsin DPW page makes you go through a contribution ask to even get to the website.

.... counted on to raise money and work for a candidate. That's why they picked one who is anethema to the 30,000.

Either they don't want to win, or they only want to win with a "Corporate Dem". Mary would seem to well fit either of these scenarios.
