The hashtag #confessyourunpopularopinion was hot on Twitter yesterday. As you can guess, opinions were all over map.
"Gone With The Wind" was boring. #ConfessYourUnpopularOpinion

This national hashtag made me think. What's your unpopular Milwaukee opinion? Use the talkbacks, Twitter or Facebook and vent away.
Mine? I've always thought the Milwaukee should consider annexing Shorewood and Whitefish Bay. Think about it? 20,000 new residents, increased tax base, shared services and great schools. And, the debate would be stellar and entertaining! And, I'm guessing rather unpopular.
Onward.

Early in his career, Sherman was one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and currently is involved in numerous civic and community groups - including board positions at The Wisconsin Center District, Wisconsin Club and Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. He's honored to have been named to The Business Journal's "30 under 30" and Milwaukee Magazine's "35 under 35" lists.
He owns a condo in Downtown and lives in greater Milwaukee with his wife Stephanie, his son, Jake, and daughter Pierce. He's a political, music, sports and news junkie and thinks, for what it's worth, that all new movies should be released in theaters, on demand, online and on DVD simultaneously.
He also thinks you should read OnMilwaukee each and every day.
