Warning signs for GOP in Door County

The view from Fish Creek:

Stephen Kastner, writing on a blog from Door County called Purple Cheese, handicaps the 8th District Congressional race.

Kastner, who edits the web news site, the Door County Compass, says Dr. Steve Kagen, a bike racer as well as a doctor, has broken away from the Dem pack. He also has this observation about what may be coming in November:

What I like to hear are the voices of so many of my Door County Republican friends who are now telling me they are "Independents" - a sure sign that they are freeing themselves up, getting ready to vote "smart" instead of loyal, looking for progressive leadership regardless of party affiliation.
