Schreiber defies advice on integrity issue in campaign
Milwaukee Democrat Martin Schreiber rejects counsel to drop integrity in government as a campaign angle amid a bribery case involving Henry Meister. The issue, urged by attorney Mathias Schimenz, is pursued despite claims of no Democratic implication. Republican Gov. Knowles lauds Wisconsin growth and honors Walter Roehl, while Lt. Gov. Lucey calls for apprenticeship measures. David Carley argues for stronger action to protect skilled labor.
