The recall has only served to build up the R GOTV machine in WI to be ready in the fall.

I hope the DEMS start challenging in more states! I think MI Gov Snyder is going down the Walker path now too.

No mtter what the situation is they lie. When they are telling you how gret a piece of legislation is they wil lie about wht the exact outcome of it will be. Obamacare is a perfect example of Liberal lies. It is supposed to lower cost of insurance and it hs done anything but that. Obamacare is more about control and collection of data on who, where and what you are. The control part for example the Mayor of NYC Bloomberg wants to enact a law about supper-sizing soda’s. Under the full implementation of Obamacare the government can band soda’s altogether without passing any law just a decree.

I am a data analyst and database administrator. My first job was with my Tennessee Department of Labor in the unit that collected the jobs information. Now this was 20 years ago so the process is probably more techy now but back in the day, the state collected the jobs information and then reported to the Federal government the jobs numbers so it is entirely possible (in fact, probable in my experience) that the Federal government statistics lagged the state reporting agency. All this shows is Barrett is desparate and commenting on processes he knows little to nothing about. Well, the last part would be everytime he speaks so no surprise there.

walker deserves a medal, jake. The Republican party should build a monument to the man. He’s taken more crap from the combined efforts of the unions and the dems than most other candidates and he doesn’t back down.

While I appreciate Christie’s efforts on the union fighting front he’s too left of center in several other key areas for my tastes. So, if there were just one medal to give out this year it would have to go to walker.

RedState and similar blogs are far more reliable and accurate sources of information than main stream media. And this is becoming more and more apparent every day.

The Double Standard is impossible to deny.

Isn’t this silly? thanks ACAT. You would make me laugh if this were not so serious.

Hopefully Governor Walker success will start a Trend through out the Country. If we’re ever going to get this Country’s financial house in order, other states, and the Federal Government needs to follow in his shoes.

The unions are throwing everything at Walker except…the unions. There hasn’t been a mention in the campaign literature, and even the lapdog media out of Minneapolis (about all we get in my county) has stopped mentioning Walker “stripping union rights”. Instead, they talk a lot about how much money he’s raised (which, when a Republican does it, is apparently a Bad Thing), but narry a mention of the money the unions have poured into the recall.

So it looks like they’re using the tactic they used on Palin – they come up with some bogus corruption claim, and for proof they point to the fact that Walker hasn’t DISPROVED it. To me, it’s always tragically hilarious any time the Democrats and/or the unions start talking about corruption.

Personally, I think Walker should bring the discussion back to the public-sector unions abusing thier collective bargaining power.

By the way, anyone notice the fact that the Dems tried to claim that a job loss in the first year of a Walker administration was, of course, the fault of Walker, and had nothing to do with the three and a half years of the Obama administration complaining about the economy he inherited.

Walker’s won the flip-flop middle. They’ll vote for him and Obama in November. I don’t think it’s supposed to make sense, because it doesn’t.

It’s like Alabama. Solid conservative state, votes Republican and was controlled by a Democratic majority legislature for 136 years straight up until 2010.

Why vote for Walker and then Obama?

Walker 52 / Barrett 45
Obama 51 / Romney 43

In a poll that shows the exact same people crossing party lines — Walker’s going to win in a landslide.

But I’m feeling pretty good about the recall.

Getting the Bob Dylan ready.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn’t you ?
People’d call, say, “Beware doll, you’re bound to fall”
You thought they were all kiddin’ you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin’ out
Now you don’t talk so loud
Now you don’t seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone ?

The left may have raised the job numbers themselves, by pouring millions of dollars into Wisconsin to fight Walker.
