Meet WI's New Senator

Last Tuesday Wisconsin elected a new senator.  Many of you outside of Wisconsin may not have heard about Tammy Baldwin before.  So let me introduce you to her greatest accomplishments so far.

Senator-Elect Tammy Baldwin's (D-WI) Top Ten Accomplishments:

1. She's a lesbian
2.  
3.  
4.  
5.  
6.  
7.  
8.  
9.  
10.  

Wait, my mistake, those are Ellen DeGeneres' top ten accomplishments.  I'm sorry about that.  I can't imagine how I could have confused her with Tammy Baldwin.

Let me try again.

I'm really sorry about that mix-up.  You wouldn't think that I would confuse a comedian and a politician would you?

With great accomplishments like those you can really see how she defeated a very, very popular ex-governor who was only notable for things like having Wisconsin's welfare reform be the model for the welfare reform touted to be one of Bill Clinton's greatest presidential accomplishments.

Yes with a list of accomplishments like those I can really see why people wanted to vote for her.  Did you know that she's in favor of gay marriage and is pro-choice?  I learned those two facts and many others about her during the senatorial campaign.  Its a pity that I cannot remember any of the other facts about her, or her opinions on any other issues.  I wonder why I cannot remember.

I'm sure you will all join me in support of our newest senator.   I'm sure that she will continue to have a legislative record of moderation and agreement on the issues with both parties.
