I have read over and over that Jim H. (Dem) is the most vulnerable. He is in red country and his
opponent is an active right to lifer teaparty-er who organized the recall against him.

3. I don't even have to click that link...
to know she probably didn't write any children's books on the 1st, 4th, of any of the others. Why is the second the only one their tiny brains can remember?

Does Kim Simac Think the United States is on the Path to Becoming Nazi Germany?

Outrageous Tweet Raises Serious Questions

MADISON-The Kim Simac story gets weirder and weirder with news of a Tweet that appears to say she thinks the United States is on the path to Nazi Germany.
The Tea Party "patriot" who has trouble paying her taxes and makes light of her bizarre spouse-swapping past Tweeted as "ButchTheBuck" in November, 2009, that, "I think of the German people such intelligent wonderful people were led so astray and to slaughter I am beginning to see it clearly now." (See attached image.)

"Suggesting that America is on the road to becoming the Third Reich raises serious questions about the character of Kim Simac, who has a history of outrageous behavior already," Democratic Party of Wisconsin Chair Mike Tate said Thursday. "Just what does Simac see "clearly" that leads her to believe our great nation could replicate the horror of Nazi Germany? This demands an answer."

This isn't the first time Simac has trashed America or Wisconsin. In an interview she outrageously said “My state of Wisconsin is, um, is awful. As far as legislative-wise. You know, its just, you may as well call it the socialist state of Wisconsin practically.” (at the 7:00 mark here)
