And yet another poll

This one from Strategic Vision, a Republican firm, but not one hired by either of the candidates.

It shows Mark Green leading Scott Walker in the GOP primary 45-39, and Jim Doyle with a margin-of-error lead over both Republicans.

Green's campaign crowed about it, but if you look at the other questions you'll find that Green, who's joined at the hip to George Bush and his policies, has some real problems. For example:

Do you approve or disapprove of President Bush's overall job performance?
Approve 29%
Disapprove 62%
Undecided 9%

Do you approve or disapprove of President Bush's handling of the economy?
Approve 27%
Disapprove 63%
Undecided 10%

Do you approve or disapprove of President Bush's handling of the war in Iraq?
Approve 32%
Disapprove 60%
Undecided 8%

Would you like to see the United States Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade?
Yes 36%
No 56%
Undecided 8%

Would you like to see the United States withdraw all troops immediately from Iraq?
Yes 49%
No 40%
Undecided 11%

Green, who talks up his pro-war, pro-life, pro-Bush record at every opportunity, may have hitched his wagon to a black hole instead of a star. Earlier post: Bad news for Bush = Good news for Walker?

AFTERTHOUGHT: They keep hyping how well Tommy Thompson does against Herb Kohl in a Senate matchup, which isn't going to happen, but never test candidates who might actually run, like Tim Michels. Why do you suppose that is? They don't want to scare him out.


And a who cares? SurveyUSA poll finds Dick Cheney -- surprise! -- isn't very popular, either. In Wisconsin it's 34% positive, 64% negative. In the same ballpark as Bush. Cheney has a positive rating in only three states -- Wyoming, Utah and Idaho. Apparently the militia still likes him.
