Matt Seaholm, State Director of Americans for Prosperity in Wisconsin, served as Congressman Sean Duffy’s Chief of Staff in Washington after having served as his campaign manager. Prior to that, Seaholm worked for Senate Republican Leader Scott Fitzgerald in Madison as a policy advisor.

During the 2008 campaign, Seaholm was Deputy Director of the Republican Assembly Campaign Committee under then-Speaker of the Assembly Mike Huebsch. David Koch is Chairman of the Americans for Prosperity.

Good for Koch.
Good for Republicans.
Good For Walker.

Man. These people get around like cock roaches.

What You Must Know About Wisconsin Power Plants and The Koch Brothers

DailyKos Excerpt:
“[the department] may sell any state-owned heating, cooling, and power plant or may contract with a private entity for the operation of any such plant, with or without solicitation of bids, for any amount that the department determines to be in the best interest of the state.”

Connecting the dots would easily lead one to Koch Industries, right? This is one of the areas they specialize in – energy. Thanks to Ian Murphy at Buffalo Beast, we have clear proof of what we have known all along, that Scott Walker works for the Koch Brothers. The Kochs have quietly set up their alternative governor’s office just around the corner from that big pizzeria in the middle of the capitol square in Madison.

The Kochs funneled millions into Walker’s campaign. They’re right around the corner from the governor. They specialize in energy industries. How can they possibly claim this:

“We have no interest in purchasing any of the state owned power plants in Wisconsin and any allegations to the contrary are completely false.”

They can claim it because it’s true. They have no interest in buying the aging plants. What they want is a contract for the operation of the plants, which the governor will be authorized to draw up and sign with no oversight, no public announcement, and no limit on the amount Wisconsin taxpayers like me will pay to the Koch brothers. more >>>

Liberal commie.....wow I guess he didn't pay attention to his teachers in school. If he had maybe he'd know he just made a major ass of himself. But it's much more fun this way.
