If you're Eric Hovde and you're running to the far-right in a four-man Senate field and the political territory there has already been plowed by New Gingrich's attack on President Obama as the "food stamp President," then why not go straight after poor people yourself?
Scott Walker played a version of the card when he spoke in relatively wealthy western Waukesha County - - and since Hovde made his remarks in Brookfield, Waukesha County, let's ask: why do these Republicans feel so comfortable making these remarks in Waukesha County? - - and said that Wisconsin should not become "another Milwaukee."
Walker's TV ads conjured up for out-state viewers a crime-ridden city where children were murdered.
His campaign seems to be mentoring Hovde's. On a class basis, divide and conquer.
Poor people are fodder! Vote Republican.
