#2 "Wisconsin officials will ask that the photo be changed."

Guess it never occurred to them to ask for their ~~taxpayers'~~ MONEY BACK. :-(

#5 Maybe it's some cautionary subliminal thingy about the Coleman-Franken race?

#6 Why "Photoshop" when you already have a skyline like this or this or this.

#7 Madison has a beautiful skyline, especially looking across Lake Monona toward the capitol.

The people in Connecticut don't know their Flyover Country geography very well.

Why was this job done in Connecticut when we have plenty of website creators here in the state? A question for my state legislator--right after I suggest that he follow two other state reps' lead and refuse the pay raise the state legislature voted itself.

#8 Not unreasonable to honor Mpls in the image, considering as how a goodly number of the voters visit from there each year.

#11 seething that wisconsin is considered fly over country. I'll second that. It is a term used IMO but coastal elitists who consider the Midwest and other areas of the country as little more than tax plantations. While Madison is actually quite picturesque from a distance the East Side is a dump. I suppose thats what you get with student rental housing and being the older more cramped area of town. Especially on the isthmus.

#12 "seething that wisconsin is considered fly over country"

Wisconsin (and most of the country in between the coasts) will forever be a 'fly over' if this gets passed.
