Governor Janus Doyle

Which Governor Doyle are we to believe? The governor that told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel he is willing to compromise on the issue of school choice? Or the snarky, ill-tempered partisan that wrote the letter to MMAC President Tim Sheehy accusing him of high-pressure and dishonest attacks?

Apparently Doyle is feeling the heat. He knows he needs high voter turnout in the inner city, and he ain't going to get it if they keep hearing things like the spot on Charlie Sykes' program.

So while Doyle's supporters go apoplectic over the criticism he's taking for playing politics with the lives of African American schoolchildren, school choice supporters need to keep the pressure on. Maybe then one of his two faces will sign the Vukmir/Darling bill.
