Michael Bright's brilliance can not go unrecognized. Here is a list of 'Major business lobbying firms' from Madison.com. How do you get on the list? It is all about estimated annual revenue. Who estimates? The lobbyist.


Well, well, well. In order to be listed as a "major firm" you have to gross big revenue.
Surprise ! Michael indicates that he books $700,000+.

Lets look at his list, shall we:

Midwes Express: $10,000+/month ( here's the big one)
Com Ed: $3,000/month ( maybe )
Wis Manuf Housing: $2,000/month ( plus or minus )
Salomon Smith Barney: $3,000+ /month
Dane County Towns & Cities: $1,000+/month (if he's lucky)
All other listed clients: diddley squat


TOTAL: $20,000/month (more or less)

This is $40,000/month less than his reported estimated revenue.
(And arguably $17,000/month more than he is worth.)

Puffery and cheap hype. Maybe he could go into the P.R. field.

People, especially legislators, get sick of this kind of claptrap.
