Wisconsin GOP's Scott Walker Endorsed by "Morgan Freeman"

Wisconsin's Republican candidate for governor, Scott Walker, has locked up the endorsement of an A-list star. In commercials now running throughout Wisconsin, "Friends of Scott Walker" attack Democratic candidate Tom Barrett on his record on sewage control while he was mayor of Milwaukee. Narrating the ad is none other than… Morgan Freeman? Let's listen.

Curiously, what with such a big name, Walker's team has not put the ad online, seemingly content to have it run during Green Bay Packer games and the nightly local news. We're not political strategists, but it would seem that a relatively-unknown Milwaukee county executive candidate like Walker would want to play up this endorsement as much as possible.

Walker's campaign failed to return numerous calls for comment. Maybe they'll return the ones from Morgan Freeman's agent.

Oh yes:

Abe Sauer is really upset about the Milwaukee Brewers.
