Thanks for the heads up, Stuart G!

By the way, I got your joke, (wink).

(68,556 posts)I like the guy...The teacher seems nice too. Ryan will be hard to beat. I lived in Janesville...hometown boy made good...they loved him when I was there.

(6,622 posts)Some of his mailers have a 10:1 ratio of Ryan's name to Randy's. I'm not the only person to bring this up to him, but perhaps the powers-that-be have more pull (or money) than we do.
I wish he'd use EXACTLY the Lamb model of focusing on policy and on what HE WOULD DO for the district and country. Forget the jabbering about Ryan.

(30,481 posts)I think he has done well for himself and would be better against Ryan than Cather. That and every part of the party seems to have already rallied around him.

(68,556 posts)I like both candidates...and it will be tough to beat Ryan.

(30,481 posts)Im fond of both of them. I would actually like the people to see a debate on our side.
There are electoral positives to the early support. Bryce can simply run against Ryan and millions have poured in from out of the state.

I've read great positive things about both.
Both are strong

(7,349 posts)However had there been photos of Cathy Myers also being arrested, in all fairness, I would have also included those photos in the op.....

(6,288 posts)I just want Ryan to be ruined. 1st by this election & then by Robert Mueller.
Smug little nazi.

(33,337 posts)The one who loses the primary should move to Kentucky and run again -- we're Democrat-poor here, for some reason.
I like the stands each of those candidates takes.

(53,061 posts)He will go to the Heritage Foundation (but not a lobbyist job) and will go around the country raising money for Republican Congressional candidates and establishing him as the rational alternative to help rebuild the party after Trump.

(11,949 posts)And if all of DU is prepared to coalesce around the winner than sure as hell Democrat at large will!!
The goal is flipping the seat. Beating Ryan would be gravy. But it will be easier to defeat a newby than the house leader.

(14,167 posts)I don't know enough about this WI district to donate to either of these candidates. They both sound strong.
beachbum bob
(10,437 posts)if bryce does win the primary than he needs to go all in against Ryan or whoever it maybe
no standing up for working families or unions or labor
taxcuts going to the rich and not those who need it
ruining environmental protections and effect on wisconsin
attacks on social security and medicare and effect on wisconsin
cuts to medicaid and effects on wisconsin rural hospitals
too afraid to stand up to trump
not fighting tariffs and effect of foreign tariffs on wisconsin exports
focus on ryan failure to have a private sector job or no what earning a paycheck is all about, talk about HIS pension he will receive while agains working american's pensions, social security
talk about all of the social security benefits he recieved while fighting against social security for other americans
a populist message can beat ryan or and republican challenger
