An interesting thing happened in the Wisconsin recall primary yesterday: Governor Scott Walker received more votes than Tom Barrett and Kathleen Falk combined, the two leading Democrats fighting to challeng him on June 5.

The reason isn't that the characters are product loyalists. It's that the producers made a deal to promote Toyota products on the show. An interesting story to be filed in the gigantic folder labeled "Unanticipated Consequences."
