WI - just got back from voting
I was number 483 - that's high for this neighborhood. They said it's been steady all day long. This is a labor neighborhood, mostly retired American Motors and chrysler employees.



I also just saw Ryan on TV...he's been groomed. He's doing his hair different to disguise that widow's peak and letting his beard scrub unshaved. Either he's getting a divorce or he's being groomed for higher office. I haven't heard anything about a divorce.

17. We had side-by-side pics of Eddie Munster and Paul Ryan here at DU
They look like brothers.

2. Yes, he's being groomed, literally and figuratively. Watch out.

10. I've been watching him.
I'm sorry to say that every election I've been hoping the Dem party would find someone good to run against him, but it never fails, Jeffrey Thomas takes out papers to run and the party doesn't even bother to approach anyone else. Thomas has done this every 2 years since 2000. In the last election there were others interested, but they didn't bother when Thomas said he was going to run. There are 2 repubs in this district we've got to get rid of, Ryan and Samantha Kirkman...so I hope someone with name recognition and smarts steps up next time around.

13. Morning Joe
sure likes him. He gets a lot of promotion. Since he's from this area, our local paper really prints him up. And everything starts local, remember.
