Associated Press reporter Ryan J. Foley gives a few reasons why Supreme Court justices probably shouldn't be subject to popular elections and then offers Jefferson County Circuit Judge Randy Koschnick's campaign person a free platform to complain that Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson is outraising his candidate by 56 to one:
Lawyers in malpractice case donate to Wis. justice
Here's my question (a two-parter [objection overruled]):
How come this journalist never once mentions the $25K attorneys for Foley & Lardner — the firm opposing Cannon & Dunphy in the lawsuit at issue — have spread around among the Supreme Court justices?
Are they to be measured by a different standard, or what?
What a tremendously biased piece of reporting.

Speaking of Foley, Koschnick apparently has one supporter at Wisconsin's largest firm:
Emory Ireland of Foley & Lardner donated $1,000.
To Gableman also.
I dunno.
Why doesn't the Journal mention that Foley & Lardner lost a 7th/Appeals case in which they were accused of race-based harassment?
I don't think the J-S even ran this story.
