WIS GOP Chair Reince Priebus puts his foot in his mouth

The GOP and Dem chairs debated this week, the highlight being GOP chair Reince Priebus saying;

“The fact is, whether it’s true or not, the mayor has given a very bad mixed message as far as what his commitment is to running for governor, and it’s causing him a problem.”

Priebus is insulting Barrett’s announcement of his candidacy only a year before the election.

Everyone reading this and following WisPolitics is keenly aware of Barrett’s “late” announcement of candidacy.

The other 99.7% of eligible voters have yet to even consider the governors race. Things like Easter and Presidents Day are  weighing more heavily on their minds.

Anyway, on to the Senate;

“Priebus also said that Gov. Tommy Thompson told him that he was thinking about running for U.S. Senate.”

Is Thompson also giving a “very bad mixed message as far as what his commitment is,” Reince?

That’s quite the double standard…
