Quick Hit: Democratic Candidate for Kohl’s Seat = Tom Barrett Running For Governor
Just some quick insight on the news that Tammy Baldwin is running as the Democratic candidate for the soon to be vacant Herb Kohl Senate seat:; two things popped in my head when I heard the news 1) I laughed, somewhat uncomfortably, considering Baldwin’s history. It’s funny that she would be a legit candidate, but not so funny if she were to actually win. 2) The “selection” of Tammy Baldwin, on the Democratic side looks eerily similar to the forced candidacy of Tom Barrett when he ran against Scott Walker in the 2010 Governors race. We’ll obviously have to wait and see how the Republican primary goes and then more importantly the campaign(s) round out for 2012, but sufficed to say, it will be interesting to watch
