Pandering, identity politics from the Huffington Post, this is so 2012. BTW, if this candidate is trailing the others in the Democratic primary coming up (Tony Evers seems to lead in the DNC), I call double bunk from the liberal media. I don't think this guy is going to win anyway, so it's just a leftist "feel-good" story. Pretty revolting. "The Wisconsin White Whale"? Smacks of maybe being racist. :

It was a Saturday at 11:30 a.m. in Superior, a port city of 30,000 in Wisconsin’s far northwest corner. Mitchell, the leader of the Professional Firefighters of Wisconsin and a Democratic candidate for governor, had just finished touring the city with fellow firefighters and was about to kick off an economic roundtable with other union members. But first, he was perusing the beer list at Thirsty Pagan Brewing.

Breweries, as locally owned small business with a bit of a cool factor, have become a standard campaign stop for politicians of both parties.

(For comparison, Bud Light’s ABV is 4.5 percent.)
