The Political Environment: John Dean Says Walker "More Nixonian" Than Nixon

enoughalready said...: Thanks, James. I read the piece. Interesting anaysis. I wonder if Dean knows about the Fitzgeralds' positions of unusual power in this state, too, including of course the Walker appointment.

I agree with Dean that we haven't seen anything yet if Walker survives the recall. Among other things, I expect tougher truth-in-sentencing laws and probably an attempt to re-instate the death penalty in Wisconsin.

PS -- I wonder if you would get more comments if it wasn't so difficult to prove we are not robots. Sometimes, the two "words" are indecipherable!; April 21, 2012 at 1:20 AM

For what it's worth, I have the same trouble sometimes using Facebook and other sites.; April 21, 2012 at 9:31 AM
