Practically Speaking
Kyle and her husband moved to Brookfield in 1986. She became active in local politics and started blogging in 2004. Her focus is primarily on local issues but often includes state and national topics, too. Kyle looks at things from the taxpayers' perspective in a creative, yet down to earth way, addressing them from a practical point of view.
Rumors persist that Biden will step down and Hillary step in
The rumor mill is churning out that Sen. Joe Biden will step aside for medical reasons* and that Sen. Hillary Clinton step in as VP. Never mind that her husband just said yesterday that Hillary never wanted to be Vice President.
An enthusiastic Hillary talks about...Hillary!

Dr. Gibson flirts with 4K again to cure Elmbrook's budget woes
Last night I caught a bit of the July school board meeting on cable TV*. The board was discussing Elmbrook's coming budget woes and the

operating within budget. (Unfortunately, I missed at least the first half of the meeting, but I will watch again and take better notes.)

Primary election picks: Sutton, Halmstad, and Hillary?
Tomorrow is the primary for President and Brookfield Aldermen in Districts 1 and 2. I have no aldermanic primary in my district. But if I did live in the 1st or 2nd district...
