Luther Olsen supported by Out-of-State "Club for Growth"

Just saw two ads back to back (Channel WISC 3 about 6:15pm Sunday 7/24) ... the first attacked Fred Clark and the second said Luther Olsen was a wonderful politician being attacked by out-of-state special interests!  That inspired me to rerun a sort of negative/truthful add about Olsen .... who do you believe?

 Fred Clark .... need to recall Luther Olsen ... video

The Club for Growth sponsored the attack ad on Democratic Candidate Fred Clark  ... ironically there is no one on their Board of Directors from Wisconsin ... so an out-of-state special interest group is indirectly supporting Olsen by attacking his Democratic opponent ... how funny is that?!

Here is a list of the Club for Growth Board members  ... see anyone from Wisconsin ????

Board of Directors

JACKSON T. STEPHENS, Little Rock, AR
Chairman


THOMAS L. RHODES,
New York, NY
Chairman Emeritus

RICHARD GILDER, New York, NY
Chairman Emeritus

HOWARD RICH, Philadelphia, PA

FRAYDA LEVIN, Mountain Lakes, NJ

KEN BLACKWELL,
Cincinnati, OH

JOHN CHILDS, Vero Beach, FL

CHRIS CHOCOLA, Bristol, IN

Who are these people ??

One person, George Mitchell, from Whitefish Bay, WI is on the Leadership Council of Club For Growth.

This OnMilwaukee.com has some additional insight -
In 2005, the state group took in $94,950, according to campaign watchdog Wisconsin Democracy Campaign. Most of that came from four donors: $25,000 from retired Racine businessman Fred Young and $10,000 each from Wausau paper company executive San Orr, Milwaukee school voucher advocate George Mitchell and conservative Sheboygan businessman Terry Kohler.

Update: WPR & WPT - WisconsinMoneyMatters (Schools Impact)

This new site, an arrangement by Wis Public Television and Wis Public Radio, is about important public policy issues in Wisconsin.  We should all follow them, encourage them, promote them (i.e.,Twitter) so that our fellow Wisconsinites and even a broader audience get a perspective about what is going on in the state.

School districts, collective bargaining being changed are a couple of recent topics.  I am afraid that you can rely on Governor Walker, the Fitzgerald boys, the Republican Party and TeaParty along with Senator Johnson and Representative Ryan and Sensenbrenner will all do what they can to prevent any message they do not like from continuing!

Hopper vs King Debate Video 7/18?

Hopper is he really anti-jobs and mostly ideological  - for the time being let's ignore his poor judgement in his life commitment choices?  What do you think?
