I cannot in good conscience vote for Tom Barrett on Tuesday. [View all]

Mostly because it would be a double vote. I just got back from voting absentee-in-person with my wife. Then we went to pick up Barrett & Obama yard signs for our neighbor. Our yard signs have been up for a while.

They are out of signs for our State Senate recall candidate, Kristen Dexter, so our neighbor didn't get one.

While at the Dems office, my wife signed up for phone banking on Sunday & Tuesday. I'm already signed up for Saturday & will probably also do a stint on Monday.
