A Couple of Points on Ethanol
One from the Wisconsin State Journal:

One from me:
It's a damn shame that, while our elected leaders in southwest Wisconsin voted for the E10 mandate, they were sure quick to quiet down when republican leaders in Madison opposed it. In fact, they folded like a cheap tent. It's not enough to just vote for something. You've got to make your voice heard in Madison and convince others to vote for it.
Opposition to the E10 mandate came largely from Milwaukee republicans and Milwaukee conservative talk radio. It would have been nice if our representative in the 49th would have gone to the people of Milwaukee and made the case for ethanol. But I guess that would be asking too much.
Iowa, Illinois, and Minnesota are far ahead of us when it comes to renewable fuels production and usage. But we can catch up. It just takes a little initiative from elected leaders. We don't have that in the 49th district. But give me your vote on November 7th, and we will.
Wisconsin's state motto is: FORWARD! Not "let's sit around and let everyone go first."
