Some time ago I said that Doyle was the media's candidate. Well, he was. Now Scott Walker has become the candidate to beat for Governor of Wisconsin. The media is polling and so far Barrett is the best they can do. Milwaukee Mayor Barrett recently got in between 2 people in a violent family dispute at the Wisconsin State Fair and got hit with a crowbar by one of the people and is enjoying some public (deserved) sympathy for his heroics.
But the public only will consider that for so long. Hanging by 2 broken arms for his country wasn't enough for the American people to choose John McCain over Barack Obama. Mayor Barrett will have to separate himself from Governor Doyle just as John McCain tried (but failed) to separate himself from George W. Bush.
It is worth noting that Scott Walker is now the candidate all others are being held up against.
Walker 44% / Barrett 43% Walker 48% / Lawton 43% Walker 49% / Kind 39%
Walker Average = 47%
Democrat Average = 40.66%
Way to go Scott!
