Plan formerly known as TABOR still tough to sell

MADISON � State Sen. Glenn Grothman must have an eerie feeling of what it was like to be former Senate Majority Leader Mary Panzer about two years ago.

Grothman trounced Panzer, a fellow West Bend Republican, in a primary race after she failed to bring the taxpayers bill of rights, known as TABOR, to the floor for a vote. At the time, Panzer said she supported the proposal but didn�t have enough votes lined up in her caucus to get the resolution through the Senate.
