The region famous for its biscuits, barbecue and pecan pies has been struggling with its weight for years - but then again, so has the rest of the country. Wisconsin loves cheese...
...more time with her children. You could say she falls more into the "pushed out" category than into the "opt out" one, given the hostility of the legislature, the media and the ethics hounds.

...receiving health care. One way you do that is to reduce the corporate tax on our small businesses especially in America. You're going to see Obama increase those taxes on small businesses - whether he admits it today or not, he's going to. One thing reporters aren't asking the Administration is - it's such a simple question and people around here in the real world, outside of Washington, D.C., want reporters to ask - President Obama, how are you going to pay for this $1 [trillion] or $2 [trillion] or $3 trillion health-care plan?
