Sensing A Loss, The WMC Takes A Pass

The Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce has announced it is sitting out the April State Supreme Court race.

So is the state's leading Deep Pockets, Deeply Reactionary Big Business organization reforming itself after spending millions on negative TV ads to get ethically-challenged local judges promoted to the high court?

Hardly.

The WMC can read a poll and assess an incumbent's huge treasury and grasp that a nobody from Jefferson County is an easy shove under the bus driven by sitting Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson - - whose re-election is a lock, and deservedly so.

The WMC will come back into the fray when there are easier pickings.
