Battleground Wisconsin

We discuss the courageous new Tammy Baldwin TV ad exposing her mother’s battle with drug addiction and its impact on her family. The ad and tone of Tammy’s campaign stands in sharp contrast to the sewer war between Nicholson and Vukmir that escalated this week with Vukmir saying Baldwin was a member of “Team Terrorism” and close with 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. We review a bad week for some Democratic governor candidates and the Illinois Attorney General sues the EPA over Foxconn’s air exemption. We welcome Economic Policy Institute’s (EPI) David Cooper to discuss his new report demonstrating how Minnesota buries Wisconsin in economic performance on all measures.
