WisOpinion - The Show: featuring John Nichols and Brian Fraley

The Capital Times  —  6/12/2008 7:25 am

In this week's "2 Minute Take,'' John Nichols of The Capital Times and Brian Fraley of the Wisconsin Institute for Leadership skewer recently awarded UW pay raises and speculate on how Barack Obama, in Wisconsin on Thursday, will try to bring back Hillary Clinton supporters.

In the rest of "WisOpinion.com -- The Show,'' presented by The Capital Times, Senate Republican campaign chief Keith Gilkes talks about how Gov. Jim Doyle's appointment of Roger Breske as railroad commissioner has improved the outlook for the GOP regaining control of the state Senate. He says in addition to the old Breske seat, the seats of Dave Hansen in Green Bay and Bob Wirch in the Kenosha area are prime targets. A lot will depend upon John McCain's performance, he suggests.

And then Fraley and Nichols give their risings and fallings of the week with commentary on the upcoming state Democratic Party convention and the floods.
