State Senate Picks:
8) State Senate
District 5: Eastern Brookfield, Elm Grove, Wauwatosa,
Leah Vukmir, current state representative is challenging Jim Sullivan (D) (Sullivan barely beat Tom Reynolds (R) in 2006). Vukmir is unopposed in the primary and will be a great Senator.
District 33: Waukesha, Western Brookfield, Hartford, Sussex, Lisbon, SW Menomonee Falls
Rich Zipperer has done an excellent job in the State Assembly and is now running for the seat held by the retiring Senator Ted Kanavas. Zipperer has been a solid pro-life, pro-family, pro-2nd Amendment vote and will be in the Senate. His opponent, Tim Dietrich lists as his “hot button” issue “seat belts for school buses.” While this may be a valid issue, organizations such as Wisconsin Right to Life, Pro Life Wisconsin, and the NRA have endorsed Rich Zipperer. Without a Democrat opponent, the winner of the primary will likely win the seat. Interestingly, Dietrich lists on his blog that Dietrich was offerred and turned down a $2,500 donation from the Teamsters.

F True enemy of gun owners’ rights. A consistent anti-gun candidate who always opposes gun owners’ rights and/or actively leads anti-gun legislative efforts, or sponsors anti-gun legislation.

Brett Davis: Republican, RINO, or Democrat?
Interesting story about Davis at Examiner.com…
A teacher’s son, Davis’ political ambitions have never been a secret. However, a vast array of tidbits from Davis’ history have many puzzled about why seemingly far right conservatives have taken up Davis’ cause.
A contributing factor to their confusion is that the big spending Wisconsin Education Association Council (WEAC), known for supporting Democrat candidates, has only ever shown token opposition to Davis, a fact that is especially puzzling since Davis has been on the Assembly Education Committee throughout his time in the legislature. Some wonder if perhaps WEAC’s leaders bought the leftist Capital Times’ description of Davis as a “relatively moderate…legislator” or noted the Capital Times praise of Davis’ legislative habits as one who, “knows how to cross partisan lines.”
During his run for second in command at the State Capitol, Davis has portrayed himself as a right-wing member of the GOP. However, on his campaign wesite for the Republican Primary, Davis details what he considers to be the top issues concerning Republicans and fails to mention sanctity of life.
