Battleground Wisconsin

We welcome Matt Rothschild, executive director at Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, to talk about this week’s rushed legislative action to dismantle the nonpartisan Government Accountability Board and allow unlimited corporate money into Wisconsin elections, leaving the state open to corruption. We review new St. Norbert polling that reveals huge levels of dissatisfaction with Gov. Walker and Wisconsin’s economy. We also discuss the political theater surrounding the conservative courting of Paul Ryan for Speaker and Sen. Ron Johnson’s failure to act on impending Medicare premium hikes.
