The Lautenschlager-Falk difference

I always say that campaigns are about drawing distinctions between candidates.

We've all been waiting to hear the differences between the Democratic candidates for attorney general, and now Peg Lautenschlager has finally drawn the distinction between herself and Kathleen Falk:

Lautenschlager has been a Dem Party member longer.

And you thought we weren't going to have a substantive debate at the state convention in LaCrosse this weekend? The only people who would care if you ever belonged to the party will be there, and voting in a straw poll, which is the only possible explanation for Lautenschlager's petty attack.

Elsewhere, voters might think that being a non-member shows you have good sense. I don't think I'd put it in a television ad. (Free advice to Peg.)

I hope Peg didn't spend a lot of money on that opposition research package, if that is all it produced.

If you don't see me in LaCrosse Friday night, start the convention without me.
