Enraged by Walker, activists put Kloppenburg’s Supreme Court campaign on their shoulders

"Kent Hall is mad as hell at Gov. Scott Walker, but since Walker isn’t up for re-election he wants to vent his anger on Supreme Court Justice David Prosser, who is. So he started his own political action committee to back Prosser’s opponent, JoAnne Kloppenburg, in the April 5 election.


“We’re moving from chanting, clapping our hands, shouting and marching to getting even,” says Hall, a retired UW-Stevens Point biology professor, who with his wife, Sue, and several friends has printed and distributed hundreds of campaign fliers and made well over 100 yard signs to distribute throughout Portage County, 100 miles north of Madison.


“If we can tie Prosser to Scott Walker, then a vote for Kloppenburg will be a vote against Walker,” he says.

1. I suppose this will be the determining factor as to who is winning the debate?

3. Or it could just be a vote against a man who called a
seventy-seven year old woman who happens to be Chief Justice a "bitch."
