Gard emerges from slumber, endorses Neumann

So John and Cate are endorsing Mark Neumann. And of course, we must ask the obvious question: is this about Neumann, or is this Gard's revenge for something Scott Walker did once upon a time? Is this the latest episode of "John & Cate Plus Hate"?

Green Bay, Wis. – May 12, 2010 - Former Wisconsin Assembly Speaker John Gard and former Wisconsin State Treasurer Cate Zeuske announced today that they formally endorse Mark Neumann for Governor and will serve as campaign Co-Chairs.

At events today in the Milwaukee area, Madison and Green Bay, Gard and Zeuske are joining Neumann to offer their enthusiastic support.

“As a former State Treasurer and Revenue Secretary, I understand the seriousness of Wisconsin’s budget mess,” Zeuske stated. “I’m
supporting Mark because he is the best candidate to cut wasteful government spending and fix the budget. He has decades of private sector experience and a stellar record in Congress in the 1990s. He successfully fought for balanced budgets and lower taxes that led to job growth. Mark’s conservative credentials are bulletproof.

“I urge people across this great state to join me in backing Mark Neumann as Wisconsin’s next Governor,” Zeuske concluded.

Regardless, it's good to see there are at least two Republicans left in Wisconsin who appreciate the value of private sector experience over spending your entire adult life living on government paychecks - even if Gard is way more like Walker than Neumann in that regard.

Funny how Walker professes to know how to create jobs when the only jobs he's ever created are in the public sector. He knows there's a difference, right?

It's time for the Dateline Time Capsule- Mrs. Doubtfire is playing in theaters, the Internet hasn't started, TV's number one comedy is Roseanne, the best selling car is a mini-van , the Blue Jays won the World Series, Bill Clinton was sworn in President and Scott Walker was cashing his last private sector paycheck. What year is it ? 1992? 1991? 1993?

Republicans pick people to run for office that way the voters have options like voters in the USSR use have. Instead of the free market deciding what is best, the GOP likes big brother to choose what is right for the common man. So free choice is good for guns, but not abortions and Elections. It's Scott's turn is not a reason that voters get excited about, the running on empty staff need to realize that.
