Jeff Stone Is Finished As A Milwaukee County Executive Candidate

Having voted once as a Scott Walker ally for the budget-repair bill that ended public employee collective bargaining in Wisconsin - - and knowing he will vote a second time in favor this Thursday - - State Rep. Jeff Stone, (R-Greendale) definitely forfeits the race in April to replace Walker as Milwaukee County Executive.

Tomorrow we can find out if he was lying when he said he didn't like the collective bargaining part of the bill but voted for it anyway.

Maybe they will let him off the hook. They don't need his vote. But he might lose his base.

Stone doesn't give a shit...if he loses as county exec...Walker appoints him to a state job.......

Stone just goes back to the Assembly. He doesn't give up his seat to run.

To Xoff: I hope they let him off the hook and he votes "no" and is exposed as a Walker tool without an independent bone in his body.

And if he votes "yes, as he did the first time the bill came before him, he is exposed as a Walker tool without an independent bone in his body.

Does Stone remind anyone else of that little man with the funny mustache who comes in at the end of the cartoon to sweep up? Was it the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon?

Perfect example of progressive "logic" Rowen - it is amazing your brain is functional enough to remember to breathe to stay alive...
