Republicans are using the outrage among their base about Democrats’ handling of healthcare reform, energy legislation and the economy to land quality candidates in a number of competitive races.

Many of those GOP candidates are in Washington this week for a three-day campaign school, where they will be taught to fundraise, handle the media and abide by campaign finance laws.

State Sen. Dan Kapanke will meet today with Minnesota state officials to learn how that state is experimenting with zero-based budgeting.

"Minnesota has gone to a performance-based, zero-based budgeting system," Kapanke said. "They've done this in a very bipartisan manner. Maybe we should be looking at what Minnesota is doing."

I would like to write a few words about your Sen. Dan Kapanke and tell you how special he is. I am the president of Local 219 at Black River Correctional Institution. When we had a problem dealing with some pay issues for our military personnel returning from Iraq this year, Sen. Kapanke was the only senator or representative who came to our aid.

Regarding the complaint filed against Sen. Dan Kapanke to the Ethics Board, I really hope that the Democratic Party of Wisconsin as well as all elected officials follow Sen. Kapanke's example. As they will see, this is the true meaning of how an elected official can continue to operate their business and serve their citizens in the most ethical way.
