Walker to Green: Run for Senate

From the WisPolitics report on Charlie Sykes' "Insight" show with GOP candidates for governor:

In terms of experience, Walker at one point suggested Green should run for U.S. Senate against Herb Kohl. because of his work on federal issues. ``The fact is executive experience is what matters as governor,'' Walker said.

Walker does, indeed, have executive experience,although he's made a mess of Milwaukee County government. But he can always serve as a bad example.

Too late for Green to run for Senate. He had $1.3-million in federal campaign money, mostly from special interests who would never give to a governor's race, but he converted it all to a state campaign fund. And the feds don't allow transfers in the other direction.
