The Wisconsin Supreme Court race generated a lot of press the past two weeks because of the questionable 'gut check' decisions of Annette Ziegler. Ziegler has the full backing of the money machine at Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce (WMC).
WMC, which was quick to post all sorts of attacks on Linda Clifford in support of Ziegler, has been silent for two weeks.
Reminds me of the Fugs, Tuli Kupferberg:
Nothing
Monday, nothing.
Tuesday, nothing.
Wednesday nothing.
Thursday nothing.
Friday for a change, a whole lot of nothing.
Allen Ginsberg, nothing.
Flesh and sex, nothing...
If they want conservative votes in the future, they should be talking about pulling their support for Ziegler. Promoting someone with serious ethic problems for the Supreme Court leaves a bad taste with many people.

Getting their person elected to the Supreme Court probably overrides ethical concerns, so it wouldn't surprise me they persevered, though maybe not as overtly as before. I'm hoping for more revelations about Ziegler.

Charlie - I think there will be more that comes out about Ziegler because even people like me can find stuff. I found a case that Zieglers old law firm represented a party and there is nothing on the record about her telling the parties. If I can find something, then, I'm sure Clifford's reseachers are finding even more.
