Good For Morale!

Tommy Thompson explains his rapid fall in the polls in part on having to run with Mitt Romney at the top of the ticket.

“The presidential thing is bound to have an impact on every election,” Thompson told Madison television station WKOW on Wednesday. “You know, whether you’re a Democrat or Republican. If you’re a standard-bearer for the presidency is not doing well, it’s going to reflect on the down ballot.”
