Much of what one hears in campaigns is anecdotal.

After hearing something over and over, a pattern emerges. Such is Obama’s appeal to the white male demographic, especially here in Wisconsin.

A source said that two male “red necks” listened to Obama at a Janesville GM plant on Wednesday, and walked away vowing to vote for him. This cross-over appeal looks to deliver a victory to Obama here on Tuesday.

Should that victory be something near 10 points, the talk of a Clinton campaign near death will amplify across the nation.

"If Obama is able to win by double digits, a significant win, it could be a very serious blow to her chances in other states," Feingold said in an interview. "If she keeps it close or by some chance wins, it could be a platform for another revival and be a real boost." (Craig Gilbert, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)

Hillary Attacks

Faced with the prospect of answering to Milwaukee citizens, those running for city-wide office should be offering creative and proactive ideas to address critical City issues.

Forget your turf wars, and the politicians’ it’s-not-my-job excuses, get off your ass and do something. Right?

Make coalitions with city-wide officials, make inaction a dirty word. Do something to be part of the solution.

At least all agree with that, right? Wrong.
