Barrett's NEXT Problem

Below we speculated that the (D) Party in Wisconsin--which includes Tom Barrett, Mayor of Milwaukee, is in great danger of losing in the Spring election. 

Then there's Teh Virus, which is hitting the City of Milwaukee very hard, indeed.

Looming in the distance:  the cancellation of the Democrat Convention.

Losing the Convention will save the City a bunch of money for police services.  But it will cost the local (surviving) bars, hotels, and restaurants around $230 million in revenues.

Combine that with moving Summerfest to the fall--and losing Festa Italiana altogether--and Barrett will be running the City of Losses.

Makes the SCOWI election into a very minor loss indeed.
