...chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin.

A cordial and interesting meeting with a competent leader who has, I think, a clear vision of the promised land and a good grip on the tools needed to get us there. Let's hope it happens.

Trying to pull all the obstreperous Democratic factions into one team or tribe is a daunting job. The other side has done it, and if we don't we will never be able to compete. Winners get to pass and enforce legislation, take executive action, and make appointments. Losers get to protest and sign petitions.
