Rumor Has It

From those in attendance at the Polk County Lincoln Day dinner last night, Obey Out has learned that Republican candidate Dave Robinson will withdraw his candidacy for the Republican nomination to take on Dave Obey in November.

We thank Dave Robinson for his willingness to put his name forward. We hope he will help the Republican nominee win this race in November. Which leads us to ask, will Robinson offer his endorsement to one of the other two candidates? Hopefully we'll know the answer to that question soon.

Robinson did the right thing in stepping aside. Like Scott Walker, he should be applauded for recognizing that for the good of the Republicans chances of taking back this seat, we need a clean shot.

I heard Jeff Tyberg agreed to step aside as well. Any truth to that?

Last I heard, Tyberg was still running. I guess the three candidates met last summer and agreed to try to get to one candidate this Spring. We'll see . . .

That's what I heard, which is why I thought Tyberg might be dropping out as well.
