I was supposed to write today, and it may still happen, but I’ll confess, I’m being the mom right now. It’s a great thing, and I haven’t much more time, so perhaps you can be patient. Also, and this is a great bit amazing also, Greg Gutfeld is going to be on Glen Beck in [...]

Sean Duffy is having Newt Gingrich in to rally his campaign on Friday. If you’re in Wausau, I’m sure Sean would enjoy the company…and the contribution. While [...]
