I want to feel that non-partisan spirit

Wisconsin Supreme Court Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson and her supporters like to play up her non-partisan nature, while painting her opponent Judge Randy Koschnick as a partisan Republican.

I just want to say, who am I to argue with a State Supreme Court Chief Justice? After all, Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal, it doesn't matter, right? Or so we are told.

In that spirit, I'm going to remind the chief justice that advertising space is available at the Wigderson Library & Pub. I'm sure it's available at other conservative blogs as well.

The beauty of advertising at my blog, as opposed to Daily Kos or the Huffington Post (where she is already advertising), is that my blog is marketed to a Wisconsin audience.

Sure, my audience is mostly conservative, but I have liberal readers, too. And as Abrahamson and her supporters have said, she is an icon of non-partisan politics, so here is her chance to expand her reach to her whole constituency.

I hope she buys a really, really big ad. After all, I'm much cheaper than Daily Kos and Huffington Post. It would be the non-partisan thing to do.

If you want to understand the slanders and libels

Why the vicious attacks on Sarah Palin and her family without any regard for the truth? When the post appeared on Daily Kos with the vicious lie Palin was really the grandmother of her fifth child, the author of the ugly smear ran a poll:

When people have that apocalyptic a view of an election, when such fanatical ignorance drives the ideology of the political left, is it any wonder that there is nothing beyond the pale in their pursuit of power?
