Mayor of Milwaukee injured in attack

Former Congressmen and current Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett was injured defending a women at a fair.

What a great guy. Its nice to see a politician stand up for your average folks. Congressman and senators can't vote on anything without all their interests taken care of while this guy gets attacked. Good for him.

*Update* Apparently there is a lot of speculation that he may run for governor now that Gov. Jim Doyle is retiring . Not to diminish is act of good but it should help him politically especially considering the positive national coverage he's getting.
