Xoff's Blog

Commentary on state politics by Bill Christofferson, who often uses Xofferson or Xoff to shorten his 14-letter last name.

Christofferson, a recovered journalist and ex-political reporter, has been a Democratic strategist and consultant for 20 years and is now retired. He lives in Milwaukee.
He is the author of a political biography, "The Man From Clear Lake: Earth Day Founder Sen. Gaylord Nelson," published by the University of Wisconsin Press.

Tommy Thompson: Big idiot?

That's the question being explored on the widely-read national blog, Talking Points Memo. It's collecting comments from Wisconsinites. Tommy's not doing so well on a National Review blog, either:

Tommy the moron

And, I'm proud to say, that the reader RK from Wisconsin quoted by Josh in his post at TPM is none other than.... me (RKing, the filered news guy at Uppitywis.org)! I just couldn't let his crack about Tommy being a "sharp guy" go by uncorrected.

nice work

well said
