From the Mark Neumann campaign:
WAUKESHA, Wis. - April 30, 2010 - Mark Neumann today personally placed a phone call to his fellow candidates in the race for Governor, seeking a joint meeting to create a plan that keeps Harley Davidson in Wisconsin.
"Let's put jobs above politics and assemble a solution that makes sense for Harley and for the state of Wisconsin," Neumann said. "Let's show this company, this state and this nation that we are all serious about wanting to lead Wisconsin forward."
Neumann responded to the news Thursday that Harley is considering moving out of Wisconsin, putting some 1700 jobs in jeopardy, including more than 1,300 in metro Milwaukee. Neumann also reached out to Harley CEO Keith Wandell Thursday, calling him to seek a face-to-face meeting to make the case that help is on the way.
..."Together, we can work with Harley Davidson to convince this American institution not to give up on Wisconsin," Neumann stated. "I urge my fellow candidates to join me in showing that we are all committed to doing right by Wisconsin, and that we are focused on creating job growth for the entire state."
When Neumann called Barrett and Walker, I wonder if he claimed to be calling on behalf of the Wisconsin Republican Party.
If I were with Neumann's campaign, I wouldn't be sending out any press releases that mention phone calls.
