Milwaukee County (WI) Sheriff, and a Democrat. He has this to say about his party affiliation, though:
“Like me, most people question why the Office of Sheriff is a partisan election. I have never asked a person to vote for me because I run as a Democrat. I ask them to vote for me based on my 35-year commitment to keeping citizens safe. Most voters get it when it comes to public safety. There is no Democrat or Republican way to be a sheriff. The enemy is not the opposing party; the enemy is the criminal.”
He’s also famous for saying you should get a gun instead of relying on 911.

Asparagus.
No, that doesn’t really count as a whole thought.
Anywho, I’m on The Dennis Miller Show today, so make sure to listen to that. Does he find me funny? If so, that’s something I could probably put on my resume.
And, as always, buy my book. And tell everyone about it. And write a review.
Oh, and I guess my novel, Superego, is actually out today for buying as a digital copy. I wasn’t ready to start promoting that yet, but it’s pretty awesome and I think everyone is going to enjoy it. More to come.
