Now showing: Neverland
Neverland is often seen as a metaphor for eternal childhood (and childishness), immortality, and escapism.

Now showing: Neverland - A movie about the Attorney General Race in Wisconsin
Starring:
The Capital Times Newspaper as The Lost Boys
Peg Lautenschlager as Peter Pan
Paul Bucher/JB Van Hollen as Captain Hook
The voice of reality as Tinker Bell
This scene opens with Peter talking to the Lost Boys about the upcoming election.
Peter: I really think the voters will forget all of my problems in the past and vote for me this fall. Don't you agree?
Lost Boys: What problems? You've done nothing that will inhibit your ability to be elected this fall.
Peter: You know what, you're right and I'm going to start telling everyone that over and over again and soon it will be true.
Lost Boys: And we will help! We'll say it over and over again, in WRITING, which makes it even more true! Plus we'll criticize anyone that dares to mention the things you haven't done!
Tinker Bell: Peter, Captain Hook is going to bring up the problems so you will have to deal with them.
Lost Boys: Our first article will be the Tinker Bell doesn't exist!
Try as they might, the Capital Times cannot take all of us to Neverland to escape the problems Attorney General Peg Lautenschlager will have this fall. This editorial proves they are still trying though.
Never mind that they are using the same type of smear tactics against Kathleen Falk that they are decrying here by trying to say she is sleazy because a firm has done one thing wrong in the past. The editorial is yet more evidence that they refuse to look at the facts when it comes to their friend the Peg Lautenschlager.
Hiring an opposition research firm doesn't make any politician sleazy. It's called a modern campaign. Sticking your head in the sand pretending things like this aren't done will get you nothing more than a lot of losses.
I don't think Kathleen Falk is going to run any sleazy ads, but she will present the case for why she should be elected instead of Peg Lautenschalger. And if the Attorney General cannot sustain a thorough primary challenge, she doesn't stand a chance this fall.
All the fairy dust in the world can't change that.
