My take on Feingold-Johnson as campaign hits the final day
When asked to opine on the state of Wisconsin’s US Senate race, I offered my take: Conservative strategist Brian Fraley, who owns the communications firm Edge Messaging, said Johnson has done “almost everything right” since Labor Day. “When national Republicans took their money elsewhere, Johnson’s campaign turned it up a notch, didn’t surrender, and just…
