Wis. Gov. Doyle to stress economy in Dem address
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Jim Doyle and Rep. Tammy Baldwin say they’ll use speeches at the Democratic National Convention to contrast Sen. Barack Obama’s plans for the economy with those of Sen. John McCain.
Doyle and Baldwin are among dozens of top party leaders who will address the convention in Denver on Tuesday.
Doyle says he’ll talk about how Republicans have failed to meet the economic challenges facing middle-class voters and why Obama’s approach would be better.
He says McCain has stood by Bush administration policies that have done little to keep manufacturing jobs in this country or to make the nation energy-independent.
Baldwin says she’ll talk about how real people are affected by not having health insurance.

Maybe the word stress in the headline didn't mean emphasize. Maybe it meant he was going to put strain on the economy. Governor Doyle has certainly done that here in WI with his minimum wage law.

If Doyle is to give ANY advice it should be on how to accept massive donations to your campaign from Indians, trial lawyers, and public employee unions. He can then give sound advice on how to use vote fraud to increase the vote count for his party.

A speech on the economy? HAHAHAHAH.
That's a good one. Maybe after that he can follow it up with a speech on escape velocity in rocket science. He knows as much about that as he does the economy.

Ha Ha that's funny diamond Jim talking about the economy. Maybe the democrats should look at how good the Wisconsin economy is doing and seeing how many jobs have gone away because of Doyle.
