The two candidates I would vote for in the primary, without reservation, are LaFollette and Vinehout, but I know I have to vote for Barrett. I can't imagine what Wisconsin will look like in 2015 if Walker stays in office. And any way I look at it, Barrett is the best candidate we can run against Walker. And if he wins the primary, I hope the other candidates, especially Falk, work their asses off to help him win in June!

I don't have a problem with any of them but I think Barrett gives us the best chance. yourout Apr 2012 #2

Kathleen Vinehout for me. Tom's got character, but he's too close to being a blue dog. Scuba Apr 2012 #3

I've got two concerns on Vinehout sybylla May 2012 #18

I'll support him if he's our candidate, but I prefer either of the two Kathleens. Scuba Apr 2012 #14

That's how I feel Scuba. He's already lost once to Walker, AllyCat May 2012 #22

I've been really impressed with Vinhout but I'm not sure she has the name recognition needed to win, WIProgressive88 Apr 2012 #15
