Lori Compas, Citizen Candidate Vs. Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald

I've not met Lori Compas, but I'm impressed with a novice, citizen candidate willing to launch a grassroots campaign to unseat Scott Fitzgerald, the most powerful Senate ally of Scott Walker's.

Fitzgerald has benefited from at least two, big-bucks fundraisers at a major Washington, DC lobbying firm - - here's information about the first one, also - - so while Compas cannot match his money, she can ride the wave of enthusiasm rolling across the state in the wake of Walker and Fitzgerald's reign that gave birth to Fitzwalkerstan.

Here are a couple of lines from an email from her campaign I'm posting on my own:

This is what the movement is all about and what Barrett doesn't get, judging by his remarks today.

Lori is who she says she is, and wants what she says she wants. It will be a move toward healing to elect Lori Compas and start to get Wisconsin working together again.

When I got the red flyer in the mail, I thought maybe Lori was a Republican, but was reassured that red was just her favorite color. It is refreshing to see a candidates that does not have to resort to shady politics and is trying to bring the state together. Maybe if we get all the Republicans out of office we will again have a free pass to whatever we want whenever we want it. I would much rather have a system where I don't have to work and can still make good money. Unemployment pays the same if not better than a working wage. My neighbor opened my eyes to this! He does better with government help than he did working! Good Luck! TAKE OVER WISCONSIN.
