The only reason the Marquette University Law School Poll is a bigger deal than other polls is because the local media chooses to make it so. That's okay though. One of the great things about political campaigns is that they eventually end and we quickly learn the results (Bush/Gore and Prosser/Kloppenberg notwithstanding).

Next Tuesday, we find out whether Wisconsin voters will really send an extreme Left-wing hardcore Madison nut job to the U.S. Senate? Can a State that elected Scott Walker(and overwhelmingly rejected an effort to recall him last June) really elect kooky Tammy Baldwin?

It must be in that other version of the Declaration of Independence. Not the one we learned about in school that guarantees everyone "the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness".

I guess the headline could be: "Romney and Thompson Surge - Erase Massive Gap". That, of course, would assume that anyone believed the second last poll done by Marquette University Law School suggesting that Barack Obama and Tammy Baldwin really did have huge leads in their respective races.

With a slim lead in national polls, the Romney campaign and its allies are beginning to assert their financial advantage through ad buys in the nine States that will decide the Presidential election. While Team Obama is shifting some money from Wisconsin to other key States (like Nevada), Romney is spending more in Wisconsin (especially in the Fox River Valley).

Last Friday, Milwaukee County bus riders who placed their bikes in bus racks got to ride for free. This give away was intended to celebrate the fact that bus riders using the racks exceeded 100,000 this year.

In mid- September, a Marquette University Law School poll contended that Tammy Baldwin led Tommy Thompson in their race for the U.S. Senate by a margin of 50% to 41%. This represented an 18 point swing from the poll's August numbers and has been widely touted as gospel by the mainstream media for the last couple of weeks.
