A few weeks back I asked here whether the Republicans in the state Legislature knew that the University of Wisconsin-Madison is getting high marks from national publications for helping new businesses get started.
There are some ideologues in the Legislature, after all, who assume that the UW-Madison is nothing more than a breeding ground for bed-wetting liberals, long-haired malcontents, anti-Christians or whatever else is in their craw at any given moment. So if they found the UW to actually be pro-business, that surely would touch their good, Republican hearts.
