Oh boy, I can see it now. No wait, no news here, move along MSM.

"MADISON — Police are investigating a threat against a number of public officials in Wisconsin, including Gov. Scott Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, a person within the Republican party told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The source was briefed on the threat but requested anonymity because the person was not authorized to release the information.

Word of the threat came when state Senate Chief Clerk Robert Marchant sent a memo to all Senate offices warning senators to be vigilant about their safety. The memo said the threat was against various Wisconsin public officials, including two state senators, but did not name them.

The memo said the FBI, the Capitol Police and local law enforcement officials were investigating. Marchant did not elaborate on the nature of the threat, though he told Senate staffers to monitor online postings that mention them or their senators, suggesting the threat was Internet-based.

The governor’s office referred calls to the Capitol Police. Kleefisch did not immediately return messages.

Officials with the state Justice Department, Capitol Police and the FBI all declined comment, saying the matter was an ongoing investigation. Madison Police Lt. Mary Ricksecker said she had not heard about any threats.

Marchant declined comment."
GOP sources say Walkers, others threatened
