Update: Gov Doyle, Sheboygan DA criticize Van Hollen plan for agents at polling placesSheboygan County District Attorney Joe DeCocco, a Democrat, called Van Hollen's plan to use state agents and lawyers to monitor polls Tuesday a "dog and pony" show. DeCocco said his search of state law "did not locate any mandates of providing prosecutor coverage at polling sites, or any authority to do so.""The attorney general has no authority in this state to supervise elections," Doyle told reporters. He again said the move by Van Hollen is part of a national effort by Republican Party leaders to "try and raise questions" about the voting process - questions that they hope keep some voters from casting ballots.

We most likely are goin to win Wisconsin. But we are faced with our own government trying to prevent us from exercising our right to vote. It's anti-American but it's also a fact that Republicans have no respect for the victories of the civil rights movement.

Father Groppi, Dr. King, Schwerner, Goodman, and Chaney? Attorney General Van Hollen could not give a damn about these heroes and 10,000s more civil rights workers. In Wisconsin, in this election, Milwaukee is ground zero

McCain's only shot at winning Wisconsin is to suppress Milwaukee blacks, and they know this fact well. Fight back! And McCain needs Wisconsin if Virginia goes Obama, otherwise it's over for them.

Madison, Wisconsin - When I received a ring from a friend calling from the Government Accountability Board (GAB) informing me that the GAB had unanimously ruled against Laura Manriquez' effort to knock both of her Democratic primary opponents, Jose Guzman and state Rep. Pedro Colón, off the ballot for a Milwaukee assembly seat, I felt true schadenfreude.

Call me old-fashioned, but shouldn't we let the voters decide at the ballot box, Laura, what, Rove is your last name?
