Fire Destroys We Are Wisconsin PAC Offices in La Crosse; Recall Efforts Subdued

[SeattleGirl]

Fire officials in La Crosse are continuing to investigate a Saturday blaze that destroyed the regional offices of We Are Wisconsin, a union political action committee (PAC) that has pumped millions of dollars into supporting Democratic candidates in the upcoming recall elections.

The La Crosse Tribune reports that the cause of the fire, which started at about 9:30 a.m., remains unknown. Firefighters thought they had the blaze under control in the afternoon, however, that wasn't the case and it continued into the evening, the newspaper reported.

We Are Wisconsin used the building at 432 Jay St. to oversee its efforts in the 32nd Senate District recall election, which will be held Aug. 9. Incumbent Republican state Sen. Dan Kapanke is being challenged by Democratic state Rep. Jennifer Shilling in that district.

Throughout the day Saturday, those active in the recall effort were taking to Twitter and calling the fire "suspicious" since it occurred just 10 days before the recall. However, fire officials haven't yet determined the cause of the blaze, according to local media reports.

I wouldn't at all be surprised if this turns out to be arson.

Onward We Are Wisconsin! Don't let anything get you down. This better not be fucking arson.

Are the people who investigate fires teabaggers too?

This won't help Republicans at all - if the person who started it was a Republican, they are also an idiot.

Just another of those strange coincidences that seem to occur when the Pukes are about to be handed their asses.

If it was arson it will never see the light of day. The asswipe in charge of the State will see to that.

If I were a part of the effort there and had stuff in the building "We Are Wisconsin"..it would just make me more determined.

Go Jennifer Shilling!

Somebody official needs to check teabagger Dan Kapanke's alibi.
