Is Kathleen Falk really the best Wisconsin Democrats can do?
She doesn't have a record of success.

Remember Brittany Zimmermann?
Brittany Zimmermann, who was engaged to be married and was studying to be a doctor, was stabbed and strangled in her locked apartment on April 2, in the middle of the day, only six blocks from Falk's office, the Madison Police Department and Falk's 911 emergency communications center.
The 911 Center bungled Zimmermann's plea for help, failed to call her back and sent police on a wild goose chase by misidentifying the source of the dropped call.
Falk might have chalked up the horrifying mistake to human error or bad luck, save for a little history. In April 2004, a consultant recommended that Dane County immediately hire eight additional dispatchers. Instead, the exec tried to cut three existing dispatchers. It didn't help that the 911 Center manager she hired was the only one of four applicants with no pertinent experience.
Other than the fact that Falk has vowed to be the unions' puppet, I don't see why Wisconsin Dems find her appealing as a candidate.
I suppose the union puppet thing is enough for them.
It certainly isn't going to win over other Wisconsinites.
