Barbara Lawton introduces state arts promotion plan. She did not address whether arts will survive the Barrett-enforced "diet." Or the Walker-imposed anorexia, for that matter.

NFL demands Feingold remove certain footage from recent ad.

Doyle pardoning like it's going out of business, as it certainly will be in January.
Herald ed board: "What the Falk?"
John Nichols: It's absurd to run a Mississippi-style Republican in Wisconsin's 2nd Congressional District. But there could be a GOP for the 2nd Chad Lee take notes.
