Tony Earl (Napoleon's World)

Anthony Scully Earl (born April 12, 1936) is a retired American Democratic politician who served as the US Senator for Wisconsin from 1989 to 2007 and as Governor of Wisconsin from 1983 until he resigned to be sworn in to the Senate. Earl helped solve Wisconsin's budget crisis and severe economic woes in the early to mid-1980s and served during a stretch of Wisconsin history when liberal Democrats held the Governorship consecutively for 24 years. He was succeeded as Governor by his lieutenant and future Senate colleague, Jim Flynn, and as Senator by Bob Gallagher, a Nationalist.
