Oh surprise, surprise. The ruling by the state elections committee against Republican gubanatorial candidate Mark Green was upheld today in Dane County Circuit Court.

In addition to Green’s ridiculous advertising, like this ad that claims Wisconsin kids are leaving because of high taxes (to places like Minnesota and Illinois, which have higher tax burdens than Wisconsin…), and the viscious attack ads on Jim Doyle, this is just the icing on the cake. Green has been doing his damndest to separate himself from being the Washington sheep that he is.

Of course, it seems he is leading over Doyle. Which terrifies me. There are too many important issues facing Wisconsin to have to deal with more Republican mismanagement in Madison. A capital punishment referrendum. A vote on a civil union and gay marriage ban. Plus increasing pressure from the NRA to allow conceal-carry, and I’m terrified to think of where I’m going to have to move after Wisconsin. The places in the United States are getting slimmer and slimmer.
