I was thoroughly impressed by Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and his online video chat last Sunday.
The gubernatorial hopeful answered questions submitted from across the state live on his website.
Without a pause, he spoke directly to the camera, argued with specific plans, and offered honest assessments.
Barrett emphasized protecting quality of education, reducing emissions 20% by 2025, and of course, his campaign foundation: jobs, jobs, jobs.
He even mentioned his plan to combat the impending Asian Carp infestation, a legitimate concern of mine.
I enjoyed hearing Barrett speak so candidly. Not to mention the badass cast was entertaining. I’m the first person to defend Gov. Jim Doyle, but it’s a lot easier to get excited about our next guv.
