Barrett Lurks

A Tom Barrett challenge to BagManJim in the primary?

Not at all unthinkable, but Tom will actually have to show face more often.

His opening gambit, a sensible proposal for re-design of the Choice program dollar-flows, was interesting largely because it does not seem to gore anyone's ox, yet gets the job done.

If Barrett comes out of his hole on Groundhog Day, and stays out, you can lay bets.

It will also tell you that BagMan's reign of corruption is over--and possibly that even worse things are in store for the most corrupt Governor in Wisconsin's modern history.
