Lucey/Walker

For as amazing Wisconsin's Democratic Senators have been over the last 50 years, their governors have been fairly lacking. For being the first Democratic Governor in my lifetime, Doyle was so ineffective its not even funny. They had total control of the state government in 2008-2010 and they couldn't pass any substantial progressive legislation because he couldn't get the leaders of both chambers to agree on anything. I would consider him for the worst if Walker wasn't systematically destroying the state.

Too bad we can't go back further and I could have voted for Philip La Follette or Gaylord A. Nelson.
