This looks like a last-minute cancellation, attributed to "an unavoidable conflict." The debate, at Milwaukee Area Technical College, was about student debt, and the participants were American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten, economics professor Michael Rosen, and an MATC student. This might mean nothing or not much — some passing illness? some supervening fund-raising opportunity? — but one commenter at the link (to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) says:
I sense, fatigue, disillusionment, loss of enthusiasm, waning commitment, and a total breakdown of resolve.
I tried unsuccessfully to find Burke's schedule on line. What did she do yesterday that made her unavailable for the scheduled debate? Her supporters ought to want to see her out there, actively campaigning, demonstrating that the energy is still there, even after the discouraging
new Marquette poll and
that "plagiarism" problem (about which
the camera caught Burke looking unprepared and inarticulate). There was also Michelle Obama's appearance with Burke last Monday, where,
we were told:
According to a statement from the Madison branch of the Society of Professional Journalists, reporters present claimed that aides from the White House and the Burke campaign prevented them from speaking to attendees until the event concluded.
The statement added that "one press minder even told the chairman of the state Democratic Party to stop talking to a reporter because he was inside the press pen."
Meg Kissinger and Erin Richards, both of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, noted in their report on the event that they had been told not to speak to attendees, writing, "Burke and White House staff also told reporters not to talk to people in the crowd before the event."...
"To say that I was creeped out is an understatement," Kissinger wrote on her Facebook page. "This is what reporters do in America: we speak to people. At least that's how I've been doing things -- at all kinds of political events -- since 1979.”
I guess the real test will come a week from today, when
Burke is scheduled to debate Governor Scott Walker, and then a week later, when there's a second debate.

She probably couldn't find any losing Democratic candidate's position paper on student loans.
She's just a weak candidate. Walker was vulnerable this year, but the Dems needed someone good and strong who could avoid mistakes and go toe to toe. At this rate she's likely to lose by at least a few points, and the speculation about his presidential ambitions will pick up next year.
Meanwhile Eric O'Keefe compares the John Doe raids to rape, as the AP reports.
With a month to go one can expect the mud to go flying everywhere.
The Media & the Obama Admin/Left-Liberal politicians: Stockholm or battered wife syndrome?
What would the O Admin need to do to garner negative coverage? Lock reporters in a closet, prevent people from talking to them at a public event, what else? Oh well, be sure not to update your priors, Media, just get out there and get those dastardly Repubs already.
Her position on student loans is "Why take out loans. Just have your daddy pay."
"Mark said...
Meanwhile Eric O'Keefe compares the John Doe raids to rape, as the AP reports."
No he didn't. He said that the reaction he got from people who had been raided where similar to a person who had been raped.
What does this have to do with dull Mary?
An aide slipped her a note to "emanate strength and warmth" when sitting for a friendly interview with Mother Jones. It's not a big story but it is telling that she is a focus group creation and not a natural candidate.
Walker was out duck hunting today. Which means he took a picture out somewhere and pretended he knows how to hunt or fire a shotgun. Like last year when he took a selfie on a deer stand someone erected for him and called it a day after two hours.
The secret routers must have screwed up her calendar.
Most voters know that she's heavily supported by unions, and Randi Weingarten can be expected to make a plea for increased taxpayer support of schools.
I know this, you know this, but not all voters know this. Perhaps someone on her campaign thought it might hurt her if she was seen as too close to the unions, and had too much sympathy for Randi Weingarten's "More money!" plea?
In short, she wants and expects union support but perhaps she doesn't want to put off voters who might want to see some daylight between her and these unions?

Wow, that damaging. Of course, Mary Burke's career is basically the same thing, so that's worse:
Fake job at Trek
Fake sabbatical
Another fake job at Trek
Fake jobs plan
"Gwen Moore takes her place"
"I sense, fatigue, disillusionment, loss of enthusiasm, waning commitment, and a total breakdown of resolve."
Burke for President!
I'd still bang the hell out of her.
She should be campaigning in extremely skimpy, sheer clothing. It's her only shot.
At least Burke doesn't put on costumes and pretends she hunts or fishes. Hell, Walker even fakes an ad in a football stadium and makes it look like Lambeau because he can't be seen in the real Lambeau where he'll get booed. Dude is phonier than $3 dollar bill.
I think it is obvious. It was an opportunity to say the wrong thing at an event that had little potential positive impact. She has now shown herself to poorly articulate her positions. Big downside with little upside. Why risk it?
The time to risk it is the Walker debate, one which she cannot opt out without consequences.

Given the opportunity, Gwen Moore takes everybody's place.
Mark: "Meanwhile Eric O'Keefe compares the John Doe raids to rape, as the AP reports."
Mark is doubling down on this even though he has been smacked down by Meade on another thread.
Good boy Mark, good boy.
You get a cookie.
Yet she will still receive a significant portion of the vote...
Meanwhile the party of candidates like "..kin ah git me a huntin' license hare?" John Kerry is very upset about Scott Walker and hunting or fishing or something.
And you just know ol garagie pulled the lever for noted "hunter" John Kerry.
LOL
Ah Garage--I fondly recall our current Secretary of State--ol Lurch himself--going goose hunting in Ohio during the 2004 campaign. This effete product of the Northeast and a high end education walked into a sporting goods store and said, "Where can I get me one of them there hunting licenses?"
Kerry looked good in his hunting camouflage suit holding a shotgun. Too bad the price tag on the new suit hadn't been clipped off.
Photo ops--that's what candidates do. And some of them keep on doing photo ops as the only thing they're good at--even after the election. See Obama 2008-2016.
Was the unavoidable conflict Walker's boot and her butt?
Meanwhile Eric O'Keefe compares the John Doe raids to rape, as the AP reports.
I suppose this is relevant. I just await your explanation as to how.
At least Burke doesn't put on costumes and pretends she hunts or fishes.
No, she puts on costumes and pretends to have plans and beliefs she stands on.
Much better.

Right, her whole life is a fabrication but at least she doesn't pretend to hunt!

And then he takes a sip of his drink and a puff on his cigar...
I heard some of the O'Keefe interview yesterday. He was articulate and sympathetic. The more I contemplate Chisholm's Gestapo tactics, the more disgusted I get.
There was a pray for snow party in Colorado.
There may have been a religious discrimination lawsuit if they told Mary she couldn't go.
She felt she wasn't prepared to emanate sufficient strength and warmth.
She didn't want to be within 3 feet of the proles she claims to champion.
They might sneeze Ebola on her.
Yet she will still receive a significant portion of the vote
So did McCain. So did Romney. I'm not sure what your point is. Even Fred Thompson got a lot of votes before he gave it all up to sell Reverse Mortgages.
Voters can be stupid. Yet they can still vote. It's the American Way.
It's snow boarding season in Wisconsin already?
But seriously, maybe she didn't want to be seen standing on a state with the President of a teachers union. The left in Wisconsin is already voting for her, independents who perceive good things from Walker's reforms may find the image of her onstage with those folks reason enough not to vote for her.
Also, the story says that the appearance was a forum, I'm not sure about the structure, but it doesn't look like she would actually be debating anyone, just spouting off about how terrible student debt is, how government could reduce it, all while glossing over the real reason. I'm sure at that forum, Burke would have outlined her plan to reduce student de.... Oh, now I see the problem.
Does this candidate even enjoy reading about public policy issues?
Even at a local level, there is a lot of reading of policy.
It's not even about being coached for a debate, but genuinely being interested in what policy and law has to offer.
The question was....."What does it mean that Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke backed out of a scheduled debate?"
...and our resident rocket scientist provides the following answer.
Walker was out duck hunting today. Which means he took a picture out somewhere and pretended he knows how to hunt or fire a shotgun. Like last year when he took a selfie on a deer stand someone erected for him and called it a day after two hours.
You never did pick that playground wedgie out of your ass.

This is why I don't get exercised over "low voter turnout".

This looks like the old attorneys' saying about "when the facts are not on your side, pound on the table" or whatever it is.
Rather than this childish trolling, how about you give us a focused and succinct summary of candidate Burke's policy positions and plans?
Does she really want to be governor? If she's decided this has been a mistake, her best course of action is to lose.
As much fun as it is to make fun of Mary Burke, I don't envy her position and perhaps feel a wee bit sorry for her.
Democrats at the state level in Wisconsin are a train wreck. The fleeing to Illinois, protests and recalls have not only damaged the party's credibility, it has diminished the party into simply hating Scott Walker. Anyone with at the state level with any experience basically is shut out of running for state office -- leaving neophytes like Burke to take up the task, which can work, but usually doesn't.
Throw in some campaign hacks with a candidate who is not comfortable or prepared and the stress and grind of the fall stretch of a campaign ensure that hilarity ensues.
Maybe the reason is pretty straight forward.
When people get to know you and they don't like you, stop them from getting to know you more.
She's probably cramming for the exam. She has to get all of her canned response lines down before the debate with Walker.
I'm not from around here, but I saw this on Wikipedia.
"In 2012 Burke was elected to a seat on the Madison school board[6] after spending $128,000 of her own money on her campaign"
Yikes! How can the average PTO parent run against that!
I live in a city half the size of Madison and school committee may cost 15k to run a campaign with LOTS of door knocking.
There are some Dems in this state would have given Walker a ton of trouble -- Russ Feingold, Ron Kind and Tammy Baldwin come to mind.
They are all well known and seasoned politicians. Problem is that they also stood an equal chance of losing and careerists don't like placing 50/50 bets. Plus, being governor is a whole lot more work than hanging in DC.
Anchor: "...and now to get Gov Burke's reaction to the crisis...Jan?"
Jan: "Sorry Bob, we've just been told that Gov Burke spoke a safe-word and begged for a time out. She'll be recovering at her estate in Illinois for the next few weeks"
The more the voters see of Burke, the less there is to see.
Joe Zapecki, Burke's campaign spokesperson called the Journal-Sentinel to tell them to spike the Kissinger article and/or Facebook information. He then wrote emails to Kissinger telling her this info about reporters should not talk to attendees and that asking disabled people to move for high rollers wasn't really news anyway.
The only reason he felt he could make that phone call and send those emails is because the Journal-Sentinel have been compliant in the past with concealing things for Burke in the past. The media in this state has been horrible covering the election.
As far as the Mother Jones thing it is truly funny. And let's not forget the 12 second silence in the interview with Politico. She is a wreck of a candidate.
Who's going to moderate the upcoming debates? Dan Bice?

What does it mean that Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke backed out of a scheduled debate?
It means she's in over her head and knows it.
>> Like last year when he took a selfie on a deer stand someone erected for him and called it a day after two hours."
Garage,
As a guy who's spent some hours in tree stands, I didn't know until *just now* that 2 hours doesn't count as hunting.
Tell me, oh Keeper of The Rules: How many hours does a person have to sit in a stand before it "counts" as hunting?
PS: Please give me at least one place past the decimal, so I know you're not just making up a number.
Mary Burke: Campaigning is harder than snowboarding. Daddy, can't you just make me governor like I was a director at Trek?
DanTheMan to garage: "Tell me, oh Keeper of The Rules: How many hours does a person have to sit in a stand before it "counts" as hunting?"
LOL
You're asking garage that?
Not to worry, I already have the inevitable lefty answer: The minimum acceptable time to spend in a tree stand to count as "huntin'" will be whatever maximum time Walker has spent in a tree stand + 1.
Naturally.
I mean, wasn't garage one of the hilarious lefty idiots that decided to lecture Todd Palin on the proper attire for winning long range snow machine races in Alaska?
You know, Todd Palin. Eskimo. Winner of multiple snow machine races in Alaska.
He had it all wrong.
LOL
"Like last year when he took a selfie on a deer stand someone erected for him and called it a day after two hours."
He does have a day job.
I don't think Burke could radiate strength and warmth if you soaked her Alexander McQueens in kerosene and lit them...
What does it mean?
It means Burke's aides told her in no uncertain terms that she was going to embarrass herself if she participated, so participation was no longer an option.
They know their candidate is imploding and want to minimize her public exposure in situations they can't control 100% as much as they can.
They know their candidate is imploding
In my business, this is known as wishcasting.
She has to get all of her canned response lines down before the debate with Walker.
Trouble is, all her canned responses come from cans labeled "SPAM".
"In my business, this is known as wishcasting."
And you have a 50/50 chance of being right.
Dog ate her talking points.
It means Burke's aides told her in no uncertain terms that she was going to embarrass herself if she participated, so participation was no longer an option.
Walker is one skipping debates, he would only agreed to two. He even turned down Mike Gousha. How is that for #Unitimidated ?
This putz is entirely a media creation. There is literally nothing there beyond 5-6 drone talking points.
>>"In my business, this is known as wishcasting."
In my business, this is known as "Prior performance does not guarantee future results."
But that's the way to bet.
"Walker is one skipping debates, he would only agreed to two."
Yeah, that turned out to be a mistake. He should have offered five.
Maybe its like Spinal Tap where the split group can't play any of Nigel's songs?
"We could open with my education plan?"
No, that belongs to the Gov of Illinois
"What about my immigration reform platform"
No, that was written by that California Senator
"Well hell"
Look, we are NOT going in front of a live audience with a jazz ensemble...
Walker is one skipping debates, he would only agreed to two.
...which was one more than Burke apparently wanted.
This must be when I get to say that Walker will beat Burke like a rented car.
Mary Burke suffered injuries falling off a.glass cliff.

"Walker will not participate in other debates, said campaign spokeswoman Alleigh Marré."
"Because Walker has declined that debate, Burke will be given a forum on public television to present her views in a live special that day."
"Among the debates Walker is skipping is one hosted by Marquette University Law School's Mike Gousha, host of WISN-TV's "UpFront with Mike Gousha." He has played host to six major debates over the last five years, including a primary and general election debate in 2010's race for governor and one in 2012's recall race for governor."
Probably smart for Walker.

I expect as we get closer and closer to Walkers re-election, putz will turn to more vulgarity as Garage anger level turns to bright red.
"What does it mean that Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke backed out of a scheduled debate?"
Not much. People back out of debates all the time.
What does it mean that Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker hires racist staffers and it's not the topic in the campaign?
It means whites are such racists, in this racist country, they can't see the elephant in the room, preferring to dwell on non-issues that, because they affect nothing substantially, still supports the racist status quo.
But whites aren't going to address any of that on their own. They'll wait for a black to do it:
So they can attack 'em,....
"Because Walker has declined that debate, Burke will be given a forum on public television to present her views in a live special that day."
I wonder if it's too late to accept.
Crack,
I think you need more "racist"'s in your comments.

I dunno. That people have gotten tired and fed up with people who play the race card all the time?
It's racists all the way down. Walker/Burke, just racists of the same stripe.
Black people are also fed up of being herded into crime-ridden ghettos by the white male patriarchy. The current situation is definitely whitey's fault.
Phil 3:14,
"Crack,
I think you need more "racist"'s in your comments."
Me too, but then I read it back and think, "If you add any more, whites are going to hate you," so I try to cut back for the sake of peace.
Isn't it great to be white and not have to think about such things? Or not always being outnumbered by folks who are always at the ready to pounce on your every statement? Look at Walker and Burke:
No one's forcing them to deal with race in Wisconsin - no one can - because Wisconsin's a white supremacist stronghold.
A black candidate would have to. Madison's black sheriff is always mentioning it - if only to lie and say it doesn't matter to him. It's unavoidable:
Unless you're white.
Then it's a free pass all-the-way.
Or, as we say, turtles all the way down,...
And yet another thread dies a slow, agonizing death...
Todd - just because you refuse to confront the central issue of RACE...
RACE

Me too, but then I read it back and think, "If you add any more, whites are going to hate you,"
Bahahahahahaha!!!
You lapped that requirement many moons ago, crackie.
Big Mike,
"People have gotten tired and fed up with people who play the race card all the time,..."
That would be WHITE "people," right? Because anytime whites mention "people" - and especially those "fed up" with the topic whites avoid the most - we know who they're referring to because it's so rare to hear any black say such a thing. ("Oh, I'm so TIRED of this race stuff coming up!" Nope - haven't heard that, probably, in forever.)
Only whites think my identity is a "card" to be played, while they're human beings just going about their lives, not "playing" anything as they regularly abuse us - which is why race comes up - for whites to then denigrate it as a "card".
Your racism (almost) precedes you,...

Bullshit. White racists come in all kinds of stripes. That's why the Northerners think the Southerners are the worst, and the Southerners think the Northerners are hypocrites. The Democrats blame the Republicans and the Republicans blame the Democrats.
And, today, we even included lesbians.
Racists, racists, racists, everywhere, and all as white as the driven snow.
With only they, themselves, unable to see who's doing the driving,...
Who but the Ol' Crack could find a race issue in a question about two while pols?
This takes a special talent, a talent that NO white folk can possibly have!
"Live"? Uh-oh, Mary Burke could f*ck up a one-car parade.
Which is why she is participating and the Unintimidated One isn't.
Can you imagine blacks, finally leaving slavery and the South for freedom, only to find themselves in this racist cesspool?

And Burke is backing out of debates she agreed to.
After spending weeks looking like a moron when it comes to explaining why "her" plans don't seem to have much involvement from "her" in crafting them at all.
Anybody expect her to appear for ANYTHING except the solo performance on public TV?

Well see that's the problem garage, you don't know the dictionary or colloquial definition of simple, common terms.
You can't skip out on a debate you never agreed to. Skipping out is when you say you'll be somewhere and don't go or leave early. Refusing to go in the first place is... refusing to go in the first place.
Burke said she would participate and now has decided not to. That is the very definition of skipping out.
"I agree to two debates, I don't agree to more."

Zero. Zilch. Nada.

Lots actually. She has never been under investigation and she has never surrounded herself with low-lifes and criminals. That's enough for me. For you, that's reason for worship. But that's the diff between me and you.
On last night's CBS broadcast of the Green Bay home game with Minnesota, it soon became another blow out so the CBS guys started to showing shots of the happy satisfied Green Bay fans in the stands.
That went on for over an hour and not one black person was anywhere in the crowd.
What's the secret? How do you do that?
Garage: "...worship..."
Lol
It is astonishing that in the age of obama any lefty would have the nerve to talk about "worship" when it comes to a politician.
The last 100 years are a monument to global left wing adoration of cult political leaders.
I sense, fatigue, disillusionment, loss of enthusiasm, waning commitment, and a total breakdown of resolve.
That often happens when a dilettante discovers that their new shiny thing entails putting in a modicum of effort and commitment.
"Free to good home: Wisconsin Gubernatorial Nomination, Democratic Party. Has shots. Paper training incomplete."
"Lots actually. She has never been under investigation and she has never surrounded herself with low-lifes and criminals. That's enough for me. For you, that's reason for worship. But that's the diff between me and you."
So you agree that yet another one of your statements is just a steaming pile. Got it.
As far as the rest, she has never had assholes like John Chisolm spend millions of dollars to come up with nothing.

The only blacks at UW Badger games are the ones that are photoshopped into photos. DIVERSITY!
Burke has 100% of the far left librul voters in her corner so she would not gain any votes by meeting with a union boss like Weingarten.
" Mark said...

Wait, are we talking about Burke or Garage Mahal and/or Crack?
In reading their comments here and on other threads, I think you can tell they are spouting the same old nonsense, but their hearts just aren't in it. Going through the motions, but even they can tell their rants aren't having the same effect.
Maybe the"whites" should send the 5% of black African slaves sold by other black Africans that were sold to the west back to Africa? The other 95% in the Caribbean
and south and Central America would have to find their own way home.
Why it means is that Burke did even worse in debate prep than expected. Look for lots of battlefield preparation, and an attempt to wiggle out of the other debates.
He does have a day job.
Tho, it should be pointed out that Walker's job requires him to be working on State business for only 4 hours in order to call it a "full" day of work. He is then free to jet off to Nevada or Kansas for the afternoon to kiss the ring of his deep pocketed donors.
it should be pointed out that Obama's job requires him to be working on State business for only 4 hours in order to call it a "full" day of work. He is then free to jet off to Nevada or Kansas for the afternoon to kiss the ring of his deep pocketed donors.

Yes Gahire, Obama is just as lazy and crooked as Walker is. Thank you for pointing that out. Did you vote for Obama? Are you going to vote for Walker?
It astounds me that so many people will criticize only one of those guys while giving the other a free pass.
Perception is everything, which is why Blue Emu must have been convicted of at least a couple dozen felonies himself in order to casually dismiss seven felony convictions as "Zero. Zilch. Nada."
Are you going to vote for Walker?
Nope...sadly I live in the People's republic of california, and my vote matters less than a fart in the wind.
However, if I was given the opportunity to cast a vote against a Democrat that mattered, I'd take it in a heartbeat.

Seven? Name them please. Oh, and theose found guilty of anything had zero to do with Walker. If you think a DA, who complains about not having the resources to handle his case load, fording him to plea dangerous criminals, sopend four years, thousands and thousands of manhours, and many millions to put a few people in jail is worth, well, yyou are a moron.
"she has never surrounded herself with low-lifes and criminals."
You mean she avoids union officials?
I'll be damned.
Looking at the massive typos in his post, am I the only one who thinks that George needs to calm down and take a deep breath before he totally blows a gasket?
Rage filled anger seems to be the only speed for him. Has he ever disagreed with somebody without resorting to childish name calling?

So you got nothing, Penguin? Well except that lame passive aggressive so common with Madison liberals.
Yes, madisonfella, please list the seven felonies.

Will she be on before or after the rerun of the Peter, Paul, and Mary concert?"
Damn, you nailed that one.
What does it mean? It means that Scott Walker is an asshole.
