When I go up to Wisconsin, I'll try to make everyone proud.

Tyler Donovan

It's an act of tremendous generosity, people giving up their Labor Day weekend to go down and help. It's unfortunate they were turned away, but it speaks well of Wisconsin that they made this effort.

Dan Leistikow

Wisconsin continues to lag in venture capital investments, but its angel capital performance is impressive. Today's angel capital investments are helping to build companies that could attract tomorrow's venture capital investments.

Jason Lesteberg

We get it all here, don't we? In 2006, it's guaranteed in Wisconsin we will have a tornado. We'll have a flash flood. You're going to have some thunderstorm damage.

Rusty Kapela

The fire chief from Stoughton called the state command center and Wisconsin Rapids was the closest team available to respond.

David Weitz

We actually played very well against Stanford. I felt pretty good about that game. We had a couple of key errors, which, against Stanford, you can't have. The bottom line is we're learning, we're still getting better. Against Wisconsin it took us a while. Some of it is trying to recover from that loss and then going right back out on the field.

Michelle Gardner

Wisconsin Democrats are focused on making life more affordable for our middle-class families, so they can pay for their health care, have a good-paying job and send their kids to college. Whether it is our schools, health care, jobs, energy costs, or the ongoing war in Iraq, one thing is clear: When it comes to these priorities, Democrats are on the side of Wisconsin families.

Joe Wineke

We've never felt this through our whole careers here at Wisconsin. It's unbelievable. You just can't explain it. This is the first time we've beaten Minnesota in our careers and you're just ecstatic.

Ashley Josephson

The stars are aligning to put Wisconsin on the biotech map, and we'd stack our science at UW-Madison up with anybody in the world.

Mark Bugher

We recommend that you go through a licensed Wisconsin dealer because then you have protection if any claims come of it after your purchase such as being misrepresented as a clean vehicle rather than a prior salvage vehicle.

Jim Anderson

It's a different year and this is a different team. Obviously, you'd think the momentum from last year might carry over to this year. But you won't know that until you play the game. When you play a team like Wisconsin or Denver, getting the first goal and establishing your territory is critical.

Tom Serratore

This is a person who has a long history in Wisconsin including as a former legislator and as a member of the governor's administration. The governor always picks the people who are best for the jobs.

Melanie Fonder

Moose are not well-suited for warm weather. They get heat-stressed relatively easy. They can use shallow ponds to cool off. Wisconsin may be too warm for moose and may lack an abundance of those shallow ponds.

Adrian Wydeven

We needed to be in that market with a welcoming message to come on into Wisconsin.

Jim Holperin

Rod Nilsestuen

It was quick, but it just seemed like the right time. On my behalf, I'm not quitting because I'm angry. It's nothing like that. I love Wisconsin and I'll be talking to everyone (on the team), checking up on them.

Matt Auffrey

I remember Hallie became the second town in Wisconsin to become a five-person board, and that's something Zeal fought real hard for.

I don't think Wisconsin should become known as a state where we shoot cats.

Democratic Govjim Doyle

The Jazz Festival adds a little more diversity to the area. The artists who are performing are groups that people from central Wisconsin won't usually get a chance to see. You would have to go to a larger city to see these national acts.

Nick Marrero

The state of Wisconsin is probably a little bit underrated in terms of its college basketball. The support we get is unbelievable. Then you look at Wisconsin and the success they've had, and you look at what Rob and Tod have done ? you're talking about two of the better young coaches in the country ? I definitely think it's underrated.

Jason Rabadeaux

Every CEO and top executive in America is now reading that Wisconsin is a dangerous place to operate a business because you're getting sued out of business. That's why it's such a big deal.

Jim Pugh

We have worked with a steering committee that represents organizations and stakeholders with a vested interest in this project. The committee members want to further the knowledge of the current technologies to reduce air emissions and odor levels in livestock operations. The Wisconsin DNR will also begin in 2007 to implement regulations related to air emissions from livestock operations.

Rod Nilsestuen

The State of Wisconsin Investment Board is beginning to take steps to increase its venture allocation to Wisconsin-focused funds. That should help improve our rankings.

I guess I kind of expected that would be the result. There's a history in Wisconsin Rapids of electing these positions and that's apparently the way they are going to stay, which is fine by me.

Vern Borth

Um, I'm doing an interview with Wisconsin Radio in a few minutes, and then I'm supposed to fly to Washington to do 'Hardball,' but I'm waiting to see what happens with the hurricane (Katrina). My life is really kind of surreal right now.

John Crawford

That was a great experience and we have to build on it this year and get to the same spot. Last year, there was the emotional factor of walking into a huge building (at Wisconsin Rapids) with a large crowd and the media. We were in the game and had our opportunities. We showed we could play with those teams.

Tim Ebner

I just feel like we haven't been doing the things that were helping the team when we were on a winning streak. I feel like we took a step back, like that was the old Wisconsin. I don't know if people put their uniforms on different, but it wasn't the same team that we had been two weeks ago.

Janese Banks

Until I started the Hardwood Cafe, I didn't realize just how many people come through our area. We're so centrally located. We get people going to Ironwood, Escanaba to Houghton and to Marquette. Many of them are out of Wisconsin or Illinois going to Canyon Falls or the Ottawa National Forest. Plus, this is a very busy traffic area for Canadians.

Candy Kanniainen

When one considers great research institutes, one thinks of institutes on either coast. In the future, we want them to think of the University of Wisconsin.

John Morgridge

Everything considered, it's really something that you can't really explain how excited guys are. Even guys who aren't from Wisconsin, they want to see how the Packers fans are and the tradition of Lambeau Field.

Jake Dowell

You pick a school on the people. Wisconsin has the people.

Chris Hickey

Gay marriage is already illegal. The ban would sort of double-ban gay marriage. But beyond that, it would prevent Wisconsin from ever having civil unions. It would jeopardize public and private employers from offering domestic partner benefits. I think people are going to ask the question, is this the role of government?

Mike Tate

Wisconsin has passed laws that will probably lead the nation in this field. They're allowing for agriculture and development of things like subdivisions to work together, instead of being at odds with each other like they have been in the past.

Matthew Joyce

We're concerned that other states will look at Wisconsin and say, 'Hey, they got their caseload down,' without looking at what happened to those families [that slid off the welfare rolls], ... We've got our work cut out for us in making sure the lessons of Wisconsin make it to Washington.

Marcus White

I'll miss Wisconsin. I'll miss my musky fishing and vacationing in Door County, but hope we'll get up there for some of that.

Mark Reardon

Wisconsin has historically done great things because we felt we were all in it together. But our economic growth is becoming more and more concentrated on our wealthiest families. Wisconsin's legacy of equality is in serious trouble when we lose this feeling.

Joel Rogers

I haven't heard anything yet. I'm still waiting. But right now, I'm just all the way (focused) on Wisconsin.

Stanley Mcclover

The course was fast. I loved it. I'm a northern Wisconsin boy through and through, so I'm a homegrown favorite. It was great to be back.

Adam Swank

The actual game, once we got out there, that was 10 times better than I could have ever imagined. I just had a smile on my face the whole time I was here. It was pretty awesome, especially being a Wisconsin kid and growing up a Packer fan.

Davis Drewiske

This family has been devastated. Their life just got completely rearranged. It's relieving to know they are in Wisconsin now. It is unbelievable.

Jayme Braasch

After the game (against Wisconsin) was done we just wanted to forget about it. We knew what we had ahead of us. It's a big weekend. Now, you lose and you're done. There's no more excuses. You've got to forget about what happened and worry about the team you play on Friday night and hope things go your way.

Danny Irmen

It would be totally unreasonable to impose this tax on the already-struggling family farmers of Wisconsin. Dairy farming is essential to our economy, and our agricultural traditions are high on the list of the things that define our state. We need to provide a helping hand to our farmers instead of trying to pick their pockets.

Tom Petri

I took a week off to go to Wisconsin for my mother's 90th birthday. I probably shouldn't have. I didn't feel well the whole time I was gone and went right back in the hospital.

Jim Otto

This is an opportunity for fans to secure their tickets to great games in prime locations before individual tickets go on sale. By dropping the marquee pricing for the Cubs and Cardinals games, we are offering another incentive to Wisconsin residents to pack the park with Brewers fans on those days.

Rick Schlesinger

The fans this year remind me a lot of our fans in 1974. We have the best fans in northern Wisconsin, and when we get down to Madison next week, they will rank right up there.

Ron Vaughn

They're still thinking gung-ho winter in February, but March is iffy. In southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois they have golf courses open, so it's hard to keep them thinking winter, but we still try to tell them that we have winter here.

Ricky Kelly

It's important for consumers to file complaints with us. Last year we returned $5.5 million to Wisconsin consumers. Not only do we get a lot of money back for consumers, but the complaints tell us where we need to prioritize.

Janet Jenkins

He's a convicted felon, and that's the sad truth. This is nothing more than a situation involving an incorrect case citation. No one who read the case [cited in the newspaper] could think it involves the same Carl McAfee. It's a Wisconsin case.

Gerald Gray

I think sometimes we lose the forest for the trees. . . . When you have a full-time Legislature like Wisconsin does, you're going to get this kind of behavior.

Todd Berry

We had three new starters, but two of the guys (guards Matt Lawrence and Jason Palermo) had significant playing time. They're fifth-year seniors. They've been in the program a long time. They know what it is to work. They know what the technique you've got to have in order to be a Big Ten offensive lineman, especially at Wisconsin.

Joe Thomas

It's a little overwhelming actually. The day we got back they had a big party for us at our (Wisconsin) gym, and there were lots of news stations.

Morgan Hamm

I had no idea there was any speculation whatsoever. None of the Wisconsin players complained afterward, so I didn't know what they were talking about. I had no idea it was off.

Sean Collins

Although we were able to gain votes, we have always anticipated the legislature would ultimately pass the ban. That's why Action Wisconsin and Center Advocates have focused on educating tens of thousands of voters for the past 600 days. As the official statewide campaign, Fair Wisconsin will build off that foundation and run a serious campaign to win in November.

Mike Tate

We're not overly concerned about dairy farmers' interests in the West or the Southwest or Wisconsin. Our interest is what's best for Northeast farmers.

Bob Wellington

Our reputation to the Big 10 is that we're just fast and soft. We take offense to that. We've got to go out and set the tone on Wisconsin real early.

Stanley Mcclover

It's a dream come true. Coming from Wisconsin, playing for the Badgers, especially in the NCAA championship, there's nothing better than that.

Josh Engel

It's really the only industry in Wisconsin where the government prevents price competition, ... The industry argues that's good for the consumer. Yet everything else sold in that (gas station) is outside the minimum mark up law, which is a 9 percent minimum mark up. Each side can cite all sorts of studies, but prices will be lower.

Scott Jensen

I don't want to say we didn't have anything left, because as a player you're supposed to be able to bring it in all situations, especially when we're playing Wisconsin. It wasn't there for whatever reason.

Gino Guyer

If an employer is serious about attracting and retaining talent, about making Wisconsin the kind of place they can do business over the long haul, they've got to understand that the ability for all people to feel welcome is absolutely critical.

Richard Florida

The single most important thing we can do today to ensure a strong, successful future for Wisconsin is invest in our kids early - because what we do now will determine what kind of state Wisconsin will be 10, 20, even 50 years from now.

Democratic Govjim Doyle

The veto is a great victory for Wisconsin consumers, particularly lower-income consumers, who represent the bulk of rent-to-own customers. It shows that they will continue to be protected by the Wisconsin Consumer Act.

Steve Meili

We've had people from Texas, northern Wisconsin, Toledo, Cleveland. We've had lots of people from Ann Arbor and Detroit.

Sally Potter

It is a well-documented fact that guys will not ask for directions. This is a biological thing. This is why it takes several million sperm cells . . . to locate a female egg, despite the fact that the egg is, relative to them, the size of Wisconsin.

Dave Barry

In total, there are 203 municipalities in the state of Wisconsin that have instituted some sort of room tax. We expect that number to continue to grow.

Meredith Helgerson

Jeep is to Toledo is what cheese is to Wisconsin, what potatoes are to Idaho, what sunshine is to Florida.

Toledo Blade

We're taking one game at a time. I was really worried about tonight - they were 11-2 and leading the (Wisconsin) Little 10 (at 6-0).

Bob Letsch

You have to give Wisconsin credit. I thought they outworked us shift in, shift out.

Jamie Russell

I believe we are in Wisconsin for good.

James Mitchell

Other places have come asking for him. But Wisconsin is a wonderful university, and the medical complex is strong. Bob's talents will be put to very good use there.

William Roper

These legislators did the right thing and recognized the importance of letting Wisconsin citizens have their say in November.

Julaine Appling

This is the first time that normal citizens had a chance to speak on the biggest and most widespread political scandal in Wisconsin history. They resoundingly said that this was a profound violation of the public trust.

Jay Heck

He's big, he's quick, he's strong. And he's going to be needed (at Wisconsin).

Bobby Wallace

There's something about this place, about Madison and Wisconsin and the Midwest, that's really comforting, ... Malcolm in the Middle.

Jane Kaczmarek

The letdown was the fact that we didn't get to play two full 18-hole rounds. In Wisconsin, with the way the weather is, we were lucky we got to play at all on Friday.

Tim Marshall

One thing I think you have to do here at Wisconsin is maximize your personnel. From the standpoint of getting our best players out there, you've really got to make sure you're not burying anybody at a position.

Bret Bielema

They were just delightful people, and we spent some time with them the next day, ... We just started talking about wouldn't it be fun if they came up to Wisconsin this summer.

Karen Templeton

The credit will hopefully give high-tech start-ups more access to start-up capital and also will give angel investors additional incentive to invest in Wisconsin-based businesses.

Tom Milliken

They're an up-and-coming market and we need to be in front of that potential market with a warm welcome to come to Wisconsin.

Jim Holperin

Somebody who can work with the whole community, and who can look to the future of north central Wisconsin to see what educational needs people in this area should prepare for.

Peter Yang

This is a terrific time for the department. So many things are going well. They're in great shape financially. A lot of teams are doing really well. A lot of new facilities. It should the beginning of another golden age in Wisconsin athletics. That hasn't always been the case.

John Wiley

Wisconsin has had its management plan in place since 1999, so we're ready for this.

Adrian Wydeven

Al handles all of that for us. He gives me everything he has on Wisconsin-Milwaukee and then he begins looking at Kentucky and Chattanooga. All I worried about was Wisconsin-Milwaukee and he looked at the next two.

Joanne P. Mccallie

With new jobs, new ideas, and growing confidence that our brightest days lie ahead, Wisconsin is on the move.

Democratic Govjim Doyle

I think that this is a huge confidence boost. We weren't at the level we are now (the first time UND played Wisconsin). We've come a long way. To play them the way we did, it gives us a nice boost. We've been working hard and playing well the last few weeks and I think this adds to it.

Mike Prpich

We're trying to tell the history of Wisconsin one community at a time. Each community has its own perspective and its own place in the overall statewide history. Our audience is a statewide audience. We're trying to make some of those connections of how Janesville fits in with the bigger picture.

David Hestad

The three noncompetitive walking distances that make up the Walk Wisconsin event are a great way to get in shape and stay that way while getting out and enjoying the natural environment. We celebrate any type of event that gets large groups of people to become more physically active.

Derek Bell

People in Wisconsin are parochial in their buying habits. They care deeply about their quality of life. Things like wonderful Wisconsin cheeses, really fine chocolates, nice places to eat out and great beer are nice ways to enhance your lifestyle.

Deb Carey

We know from previous work we've done in Wisconsin, for example La Crosse and Madison, that human viruses can be found in the municipal drinking water supply. We have some of the safest drinking water in the world, but we need to remain ever vigilant.

Mark Borchardt

Based on projections, in 10 to 15 years we (in Wisconsin) are going to face a serious shortage.

Roberta Gassman

The nationals are very competitive. Teams from California, Arizona and Wisconsin are powerhouses and will be at the competition.

Sheila Kolb

Because of Mrs. Kohler's love of Wisconsin history, we have Old Wade House as a historic site. She believed, as I do, that there is a future for the past.

Anton Rajer

With the lowest February unemployment rate in five years, nearly 28,500 more people working and some 5,100 fewer unemployed in Wisconsin than one-year-ago, we have strong evidence that the state's labor market is moving in a positive direction.

Roberta Gassman

In the Midwestern states, including Wisconsin, approximately 38 percent of the need on our reservations is being funded, compared to a national average of close to 60 percent in other regions. Wisconsin is not receiving its fair share. We ask the Wisconsin leadership to help us carry the message to Congress to reauthorize and adequately fund the Indian Health Care Improvement Act.

Gerald Danforth

It is frustrating because we're not getting 10 to 12 inches. You're talking about 2 to 4 inches. We live in Wisconsin. It is not like this is unusual.

Stephen Smith

It's a family tradition now, I think. My dad wore (the jersey), and being a Badger is in our blood. I thank my family every day for the sacrifices they made. It's just the coolest feeling to be at this level of hockey playing for Wisconsin and being a Badger. It's surreal at times.

Jack Skille

They (Wisconsin officials) have done an outstanding job. There are a lot of things that can be done, but it's labor-intensive, and it takes some money.

Frederick M. Herrmann

Now it's my turn to start, and I am going to try to fill the (previous lineman's) shoes. There is more pressure because we don't want to be the senior class that let coach (Barry) Alvarez down in his last season with Wisconsin.

Matt Lawrence

A lot of Wisconsin consumers were upset with their telephone company in 2005. In fact, it was the #2 complaint last year. We intend to zero in on telephone companies.

Janet Jenkins

I think Wisconsin is the best team we have played this year over 60 minutes. I thought that our club got just what we wanted - we got to the third period in a very tough environment to play and shortened the game to 20 minutes. One power-play goal was the difference.

Jerry York

Brian tests really well. I know he ran a 4.29 hand-held (40-yard dash) at Junior Day at Wisconsin last spring, and he's got amazing hands.

Joe Koch

In the initial planning, I was the main representative in the forming of learning centers and principles that could be incorporated into the Pier Wisconsin center.

Robert Pavlik

We are moving toward greater self-sufficiency in Wisconsin. As we move toward the end of the decade we will be substantially more competitive.

Gale Klappa

He'd be fishing in Wisconsin every Mother's Day—without my mother—but it was all right with her because he always came back with fish.

Pat Ruettiger

We were just happy that Wisconsin was selected at all.

Marjorie Ward

Experts agree that a bird flu pandemic could strike and race across the world like wildfire, but experts say with the right amount of preparation and planning, officials in Wisconsin should be able to snuff out any crisis.

Brendan Conway

The University of Wisconsin is big, but there's a small-town feel here in the state's capital (you can't get away from the cheese, but you can go ice fishing on any winter's day).

Keith Bellows

Obviously, it's for the musicians, to get the bands back together and play some music, because a lot of these guys don't play anymore. But, our main thing, one of the constant things, is that we give band instruments to the high school and middle schools (of north central Wisconsin). That's the really big thing that we do.

John Altenburgh

My race for Congress has been and will continue to be focused on the voters of the 8th Congressional District. I have not been an insider in Madison, and I believe that has given me a tremendous opportunity to craft major reforms that served my constituents who live in Northeast Wisconsin.

Rep. Terri Mccormick

The idea that he got into a police car with a gun is unbelievable. After that, Wisconsin state troopers changed procedures about who got into their cars.

Jim Boback

Wisconsin is coming off a two-loss West Coast trip. We have to match the intensity they bring because they'll be bringing it at a Big Ten level.

Ian Clerihew

There's quite a bit of that type of research taking place here. It's under the radar screen because southeast Wisconsin is such a hotbed of medical device technology.

Joseph Hill

Our community sends a lot of income tax money to the State of Wisconsin.

Colin Butler

I feel like the message we want to send is that we're going to be moving up the standings board. Going into Wisconsin and playing 120 minutes of solid hockey is our goal. We want to go out and get some league points this weekend.

Jackie Barto

Southerners focus on the social hot-button issues, like abortion and gay marriage. But Indiana, like Iowa or Wisconsin or Ohio, is more interested in the traditional Republican issues - balancing the budget, integrity in government. It's a much more humble kind of state.

Billy Linville

The reasons we move an inmate, and I'll use the Dahmer situation, is that there is a lot of media attention and it stirs a lot of emotion. Wisconsin is a state with a lot of deer hunters, and we have a lot of inmates who are deer hunters, and there are some racial concerns.

Dan Westfield

The governor is confident his veto will be upheld in the Assembly. He does not think people in Wisconsin will be any safer carrying loaded weapons around.

Melanie Fonder

We had 150 people attend an information session in Rice Lake. That tells you how confusing it is. Organizations, such as the Wisconsin Retired Teachers Association, are holding their own meetings and making recommendations to their members.

Mary Simpson

We think it's really bad public policy, it's bad for Wisconsin, it's bad for our business climate in general.

James Buchen

Wisconsin hasn't won a championship in a long time and the United States had never had a championship at that point for the World Juniors. I think it's the same type of feeling that we have a chance to do something special for Wisconsin.

Jake Dowell

The show is excellent. It really highlights the wide variety of events and attractions in southern Wisconsin.

Martha Mitchell

There also is a lot of interest in indigenous dishes, and seasonal cooking. It's a national interest in, and fascination with, Wisconsin foods.

Jim Holperin

There's not a better back court, I believe, as far as their quickness, experience, defense and scoring. We've got the two best guards in northern Wisconsin. Both of them are very quick and their speed on offense wears the other team down on defense. When the other team gets worn down, that can cause more turnovers.

Dave Meade

The property owners want some service they typically can't get with the township. ... Wisconsin is one of the few states that have town government. They have disappeared in most states or never existed in the first place. Town officials aren't comfortable hearing that.

Dan Thompson

At the time those decisions were being made here in Wisconsin, they made absolute economic sense.

Dan Ebert

It's a nice group of people, very welcoming. I'm excited to become part of the Wisconsin Rapids community, which doing theater does.

Cynthia Coulthurst

Anytime we can outpace the overall growth in an important market like Wisconsin, our home state, it's a good thing.

Pete Marino

This is the best I've seen Wisconsin play in the tournament. They had their 'A' game in all phases.

Bob Norton

There's been a tremendous amount of good work done already. And the next 251 days are about getting out and talking with every Wisconsin voter about why this would harm them and their community.

Mike Tate

The Wisconsin Department of Justice vigorously enforces the No Call law and regularly seeks and wins judgments against violators.

Peg Lautenschlager

Midwifery is an accepted practice in Wisconsin, and the governor thinks it's certainly a good idea that there be basic standards in place to protect the lives of children and expecting mothers.

Dan Leistikow

When we play to our level, we can play like that. Wisconsin, they kept bringing it on every play. We had to keep the pedal down.

Brett Basanez

We need performances like that and like we had against Wisconsin. At this time of the season you look to your older players to lead the way. Isaac has had a good career and we'd like to give him the chance to get to 61 wins.

Scott Sandelin

We are glad that two of these senior citizens didn't fall for the scams. Unfortunately, criminals in Canada have taken millions of dollars out of Wisconsin in recent years. We are working with the Royal Canada Mounted Police to fight these rip-off artists.

Janet Jenkins

Our ultimate goal is to become a place where we can educate young families about the excitement of camping and how much fun it is to stay in Wisconsin for vacation.

Wayne Peters

Nuclear reactors deserve the extra round of oversight that comes with having them owned Wisconsin utilities regulated the Public Service Commission.

Charlie Higley

If the proper adjustments had been made in the GAO report, the La Crosse area wouldn't have been high at all, ... There were problems with the methodology, and the report painted an inaccurate picture that the La Crosse area and Wisconsin had high prices.

Ron Kind

There will continue to be efforts to promote alternative fuels in Wisconsin.

Jack Jablonski

Talking points use worst case scenarios. But we should not pit ethanol against Wisconsin manufacturing - that is very troublesome.

Paul Zimmerman

In the last 11 months we've hired 900 new employees in our businesses in Wisconsin.

Robert Bohn

We've been focused on Wisconsin. It's just great to get to Orlando and get great weather.

Travis Williams

We definitely have to get reorganized and take a look at all aspects of our game. We have to work harder on our penalty kill. This is a big weekend, and then we have North Dakota after that. (Wisconsin) was a blemish we have to work through and Minnesota won't be any easier.

Scott Owens

We can't be slowed excess bureaucracy. Anything that helps get our best ideas in Wisconsin into the global marketplace faster is good for Wisconsin.

Tom Still

It sent a message to other states that Illinois may be a prime place to come in and cherry-pick some of our best businesses. Missouri, Indiana, Wisconsin and Iowa were advertising in Illinois publications trying to attract them to greener pastures.

Gregg Durham

People can look at this all day long if they want to, but they're not going to find anything because the governor and his entire administration act with integrity and the people of Wisconsin know that.

Dan Leistikow

Wisconsin is now on record, both houses of the Legislature, to ban all human cloning. The governor is pretty determined to veto the bill but he should also know how the public feels about this measure.

Barbara Lyons

It's a continued validation of lots of great technology and a lot of great investment opportunities in companies that are spinning out of the University of Wisconsin and the great research that's occurring here.

John Neis

The citizens of Wisconsin have truly lost a conservation legend.

Steve Oestreicher

I think we'll see a number of (embryonic stem cell) spin-outs in Wisconsin - we got the first one going, and we're working on at least one more.

Carl Gulbrandsen

Every day President Bush and Congress refuse to fulfill their obligation to special ed is another day Wisconsin property taxpayers are stuck with the bill. It's unfair, irresponsible and must stop.

Democratic Govjim Doyle

Wisconsin-Milwaukee played really good. We stuck with them, and we got down hard. But we just had to catch up, and we couldn't.

Terrell Everett

It's probably the last trip that car will make to Wisconsin.

Don Walsh

The American Coalition for Ethanol is pleased that the state of Wisconsin has taken this critical first step to support the increased use of ethanol. The state has developed a strong local ethanol industry, and ensuring that much of that Wisconsin-made ethanol is used in Wisconsin is one way to secure its continued success and to make the state less dependent upon outside sources of energy.

Brian Jennings

We miss him as a teammate. But we could have won these games (Notre Dame and Wisconsin) with or without him.

Jason Avant

We weren't given much of a chance to win any games. After we beat Wisconsin Rapids in overtime, then people started taking us seriously. The crowd loves an underdog, and we sure as hell were underdogs.

Bernie Kubale

It was a wonderful feeling to see my mom in the stands for the first time in Wisconsin. But I didn't come ready to play today. Seeing my mother in the stands, I guess maybe I was trying to show off or something.

Trevon Hughes

It's always a plus (to get a shutout). It's more of a pride thing. Every defensive player feels good and we'll get more momentum going into next week against a physical Wisconsin team.

Dave Harris

The reason why I came back here - obviously, I love the University of Wisconsin, I love the city, but I saw an opportunity to work with the best coach in the country. For me, I'm trying to get my master's in coaching. That's what it feels like I'm doing right now, under coach Eaves.

Mark Osiecki

This is the only hearing of its kind in southeastern Wisconsin. We need to balance intense development pressure with the need to protect private property and the environment. I think we can do both.

Sen. Cathy Stepp

Wisconsin has such a great brewing tradition we've been able to play off that.

Bob Nichols

If we can find a couple hundred new fans for some of these touring artists working on grass roots fan bases, that's part of our mission: to expose the stars to our market. We're taking a look at some interesting stuff that's local to Wisconsin, but could be the next big thing out of Wisconsin.

Mike Dempsey

It has the support of the builders, the Realtors, the Wisconsin Association of Lakes, the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation, the DNR, the governor's office.

Todd Ambs

Our success or failure won't be measured in charts or graphs or budget tables, but in the fulfillment of their dreams [people of Wisconsin].

Democratic Govjim Doyle

Wisconsin is relatively short of experienced managers because there isn't a large pharmaceutical company in the neighborhood here - and that's the opportunity for someone like me.

Trevor Twose

Oklahoma had some big bodies, athletic guys. So does Florida, the same with Memphis and Wisconsin this year. They had a lot of big bodies. It's just another assignment for me. You can't take anybody lightly. ... (But) just because they are taller doesn't mean they are going to get every rebound.

Adrian Tigert

It's the only Wisconsin feature film selected by the Wisconsin's Own jury this year. We're expecting a huge turnout for it, because we expect everyone from Stevens Point to come down. And the weekend after the festival is this year's trivia contest, so the timing worked out well.

Meg Hamel

The question is whether the public health advances and the money involved is enough for Wisconsin to say that it's time now to move past litigation and focus on cessation.

James Doyle

This, in a political sense and an economic sense, could have profound impact on virtually all governments in Wisconsin. It could be one of the most significant things the Legislature has done in years. It's a good election year issue, frankly.

Joe Heim

That showed us where we really are. Wisconsin really showed us our strengths and weaknesses. That we can have more control of the ball and play more possession not just kick it. Last year we used to just kick it and let me and Alexandra run on to it.

Abby Fennessey

It creates more opportunities for girls to prove they can wrestle, whether it's with boys or other girls. That young lady is blazing a trail for wrestling in Wisconsin and for women's wrestling in the country.

Bob Empey

There's no question that this decision will embolden the school choice opponents to throw the uniformity argument against the wall and see if it sticks in other states. But Wisconsin has already resolved the issue the other way. I would feel comfortable going into any court and reading both decisions - I have no doubt the courts would pick the Wisconsin decision.

Clark Neily

Our goal was to offer something unprecedented to the greatest baseball fans in America. The people of the state of Wisconsin continue to show tremendous passion for the Brewers, and this is our gesture to thank them for their incredible support in my first year as owner.

Mark Attanasio

Our tournament this weekend in Dallas gives us three matches. And that will have to do it, because we start the Big Ten right after that. And we open up at Wisconsin, which will be a pretty severe test.

Mike Hebert

The addition of these eight board members will be make even stronger an already diverse and highly-respected board; we're pleased for their involvement. Not only do they bring a global perspective to their new position, but they also foster a deep knowledge about how best to position Wisconsin in the Knowledge Economy.

Mark Bugher

Our goal (against Wisconsin) was just to stay internal, and not worry about where the other boats were.

Tim O'connell

The governor is focused on what families in Wisconsin are focused on, which is how they afford their health care, how they pay their heating bills and how they fill their gas tanks.

Melanie Fonder

The good news is that in our waters of Wisconsin and Minnesota there is no known reproduction of any of these species yet. We're trying to keep it that way.

Jay Rendall

We don't care where you're located, it's $900 per month. You can't do it for less if you've got an area the size of Wisconsin.

Loren Lamphear

I was very pleased with our performance. We were very successful from a team standpoint. We have made significant progress in practice and it showed up at Wisconsin.

Steve Houghton

Wisconsin, for example, elected its first Latino state legislator. Michigan elected two during the decade. In the '90s, three Latinos were added in Massachusetts.

Rosalind Gold

Our concern is that people are coming across the border into Illinois and Wisconsin having this very contagious disease.

Craig Beintema

Playing on the road at Wisconsin and Penn State early will test us and give us an idea of what life on the road will be like in the BIG EAST. Playing those games in that short period of time will make us stronger and help us achieve our goals of being in the post season.

Terri Mitchell

I expect that you are going to see people now asking for Wisconsin to reinstate the death penalty because, if these statements are true, this man's as vicious as they come. I've already heard that argument being made on the radio.

Gerald Boyle

We believe the city and southeastern Wisconsin would derive tremendous benefits through participation in the Olympic Games.

Rick Schlesinger

When moose come through Wisconsin, they don't seem too fearful of people. It makes them vulnerable if someone wanted to harm them.

Adrian Wydeven

Under Wisconsin law, this product does not require a safety cap and is not in any violation of our law. But these companies must ask themselves if they can do more so people won't mistake these cleaners for a soft drink.

Glen Loyd

We need to bring that anger we had at St. Louis. We have to make sure we do what we need to do in warm-ups to get psyched for [Wisconsin].

Jose Alvarado
