Actually, it began a few weeks earlier, when Neumann dissed Walker during their primary Republican gubernatorial primary tilt:
Mark Neumann amped up his campaign for governor on Wednesday with a direct attack on Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker's budgeting.
Neumann, a former congressman, said fellow Republican Walker has proposed budgets over the past eight years that have been higher than Democrat Gov. Jim Doyle's.But when Walker struck back, oops:
Meow and meow.The Truth-O-Meter Says:
Says Mark Neumann = Nancy Pelosi
Scott Walker on Tuesday, September 7th, 2010 in campaign TV and radio adsScott Walker says Mark Neumann = Nancy Pelosi
Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott Walker’s new statewide TV ad hits the trifecta, touching on three hot-buttons issues in this election cycle: transportation spending, earmarks and ties to a Democratic Party whose popularity has sagged.
In a direct-mail piece, radio ad and TV spot, Walker mocks GOP rival Mark Neumann’s claim that he is a true conservative and Washington outsider crusading against wasteful spending. Following a national Republican strategy of tying Democratic candidates to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Walker aims to do the same with Republican Neumann, who served two terms in Congress in the 1990s.
Is the Neumann-Pelosi comparison accurate?
