Pardon?

Remember when Wisconsin Public TV's Frederica Freyberg asked Mark Green: "If you were to become governor, would you pardon Scott Jensen?"

A curmudgeonly friend asked me this question today: "When will the media ask Jim Doyle is he's going to pardon Georgia Thompson?"

I know, Charlie noted today that Thompson was convicted of a federal crime, so Doyle couldn't pardon her.

Still, there's nothing stopping some enterprising reporter from sandbagging Diamond Jim with a hypothetical question, is there?
