… First Perry , now Walker [#thinning the Field]…

Posted by paulfromwloh on Wednesday,September 23rd,2015

.. to be honest , it was about time ..

.. the ” money ” primary was going to winnow the GOP field before the full political season starts . The only question is when and how …

.. it was sad , however , that it was these two guys . Rick Perry has worked his butt off to improve his image and his presentation . He has really worked hard to do so . It is just this field and its size , along with you – know – who , that helped to sink him . Walker ‘ s reason ‘ s are different ..

.. Walker ‘ s campaign was high maintenance . He was spending too much $$ . You combine that with the collapse in his poll #s , and …

.. there will be more to come , to be sure …

Posted by paulfromwloh on Friday,June 26th,2015

… the MahaRushie may be Right [#about Scott Walker]…

Posted by paulfromwloh on Wednesday,February 4th,2015

.. Scott Walker has some serious guts , er , balls , that is for sure ..

.. he has presenatted a solid political program for the betterment of Wisconsin . The voters of the state has elected him , time and again , and continue to believe in him . So , maybe his state is changing …

.. Wisconsin is no Blue state . At most , it is a White state , maybe even a ” Pink ” state . So , indeed , it is changing …

.. [h/t — theRightScoop.com]..
.. [link] to the MahaRushie ‘ s commentary …

.. maybe Walker will run for the GOP nomination for President in 2016 . It will be no easy task , that is for sure . But , with a good campaigner , and a good message , and a fair bit of luck , that candidate will have a decent chance of getting the nod . Scott Walker may well be that man ..

.. the DemoCraps have to be sweating bricks over Scott Walker . If Walker does happen to win the nomination , he would have an excellent chance to win the White House in 2016 . He could fairly well pick off a fair number of Blue states that the Dems usually carry , and put others into play . That would force the Dems to psend money where they cannot afford to do so …

… Is the Milwaukee Public School system crazy ?!?! …

Posted by paulfromwloh on Monday,December 30th,2013

.. from research that I have been able to do , and from having watched an episode of On The Record [tonight , with Dana Perino , guest hosting] , I have to conclude that the Milwaukee Public School system is totally crazy ! …

.. my understanding is (and it might be a tad errant) is that either one or more suburban districts or charter (voucher) schools are interested in buying applicable Milwaukee Public School buildings . Simple Enough , right  ?

.. Wrong . Evidently the MPS (less of a mouthful) will not sell these empty buildings to anybody . Worse , most if not all of these buildings are in reasonable shape . Some are even in pristine (or ideal) shape . Ones that would bring a pretty penny , that would help MPS deal with its budget . But Nooooooo !

.. MPS is maintaining these empty , repeat EMPTY buildings for a cost of (likely) millions of $$ of taxpayers hard earned money . How many students are they educating ? Zero ! Zip ! Zilch . Zippo . Nice going , Dummies !

.. They could be filled with bright young minds (it does not matter what race they are , or should it) . Yet ,  they sit empty , as a cash drain on a district that can use all of the help that it can get .

.. Someone should educate them that it is a new day in Wisconsin . If I remember right , the GOP controls the legislature , and the Governor is Scott Walker . Budgets are a heady place to apply leverage to recalcitrant bureaucrats . If you want more budget $$ , sell those damn buildings , you idiots . Either do it ,  or we will pass a bill to do it for you ….
