Sic Semper Tyrannis

The Republican Party of Wisconsin says it will saturate the airwaves in eight major markets with a radio ad campaign starting Monday. The ads will urge residents to contact their local senator or Gov. Jim Doyle to support the Assembly-backed Voter ID bill and are timed to coincide with the Senate vote on the issue.

State GOP Executive Director Rick Wiley said the ads will run in Green Bay, Wausau, Rhinelander and Stevens Point, targeting Dem Sens. Dave Hansen, Russ Decker, Roger Breske and Julie Lassa. In the Milwaukee, Madison, Eau Claire and Racine markets, the ads will target Doyle.

"Gov. Doyle has put up roadblock after roadblock on Voter ID, and I think it's time he realizes how this important this issue is. And if he doesn't, it will play out not only this year (but) in next year's election," Wiley said.

Sounds like they are using their resources well and targeting those most vulnerable on sensible legislation. This should not be at all controversial but Governor Doyle has stood on the side of election fraud and has not made even one proposal to help ensure fair elections in Wisconsin, and the State Democratic Party should pay a price for his obstinate position. Good job WI GOP!
