That's the position the Wisconsin Democratic Party is in, as it promotes recall efforts against eight Republican state senators.

A little disorientated drunkenness can end tragically if you walk a little too close to a flood-swollen river. The precise circumstances under which a La Crosse police reserve found a fellow in Riverside Park this week-end. The say the 22 year-old was walking right next to the Mississippi very early Saturday morning when police intercepted him. Really, really drunk and not making much sense, they say.

When police pull over a drunk driver, they'll ask about ailments that keep the driver from performing field sobriety tests. And cops hear some stuff, too.
