Hey Wisconsin Lefties, this should make your day. Washington Post reports on 5/16 "Gov. Scott Walker (R) is up six points over Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett (D) in a new Wisconsin gubernatorial recall poll from Marquette Law School."

And on 5/18 ABC News reports: "A new poll in Wisconsin has Scott Walker holding a growing lead over Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett in the upcoming recall election. The Republican governor holds a six-point lead over Democrat Barrett, 50 to 44 percent, among likely voters surveyed by Marquette Law School."

I'm proud to say that my first significant vote will be to vote them out.

Then it's gonna be a very shameful vote. A vote for communism.

You will be on the losing side, probably not a first for you and I am sure it will happen again.

It is the losing battles that are most often worth fighting. Perhaps you just have not yet lived long enough to figure that out.

Maybe he will resign to avoid the shame of recall (boo effin hoo). yeah, he needs real money eh? He should be forced to live on a teacher's salary.
02:11 AM on 05/18/2012
Considering the pathetic state of education today, I'd say most teachers are overpaid for the results we're getting.

One hopes that the judges and prosecutors involved in this investigation are above reproach, but at the end of the day, they are public sector employees with a dog in this fight.

Prosecutors? Investigation?

Wrong thread, this one's about walker's recall having been approved. I don't think there were any charges filed, only a motion to authorize the elections based on valid petition signatures.

I think the democrats and public service employee unions will be astonished. There is allot more support than they think for Gov. Walker. But of course the only opinion which matters in the State of Wisconsin is the island of Madison.. His theories are correct. You have to have a strong private sector employment base to be able to compensate the public sector. Just a matter of common sense. But, we dont live in Madison so OUR opinion does not matter until the recall election.

It all depends where you are AT. There are Pro-Walker signs all over in SE Wisconsin and Central Wisconsin.. Like I said, But obviously, our opinion does not matter to those on the Island of Madison..

“Frankly, my wife in some ways would love it if I’d go back to the Private Sector and Make Some Real Money.”
 
-- Scott Walker March 14, 2012 - He makes $144,423 per year

He makes $144,423 and benifits per year but has only clocked in 44 hours in the last 6 monthes. We are getting ripped off in a big way with this part timer as our governor here in Wisconsin.

Yes you are. Send him packing, Wisnconsin!

Well, he is the best gov in the nation. Not just some weiner circulating petitions.
01:59 AM on 05/18/2012
LOL You think you got it bad.... trying living here in California with Gov. Moonbeam Brown. He proves that politicians, unlike fine wine, DON'T improve with age. I'd love to switch governors and get Scott Walker here, and send this clown Brown to you folks in Wisconsin. (But that would be just TOO cruel to you good Wisconsin folks!).
12:21 PM on 05/22/2012
I like that idea! Anybody from Wisconsin interested in a trade?

A one for one trade would be too cruel so we will gladly throw in Gov. Moonbeam’s backup singers Nancy Pelosi, Dianne Feinstein, and Barbara Boxer for Scott and we’ll stop making California cheeses.

I hope Scott Walker and Rod Blagojevich end up sharing a federal prison cell.

Well, there's a Cracker Barrel hiring outside of Madison at the moment. Maybe he should start applying now.

Another reason to h8 walker.

His policies really are working.
06:08 PM on 03/19/2012
You mean his policy of making sure WI has the worst jobs record in the country for the last six months?
07:13 PM on 03/19/2012
Which of walker's policies caused job loss ?
02:05 AM on 05/18/2012
Right on, Nuppup! And he's showing that fat-cat Socialist union bosses can't run roughshod over the citizens of Wisconsin. We need Scott Walker here in California to do the same to our overpaid, underworked state employees (also unionized). I'd offer you Jerry Brown in return, but that would be just TOO cruel to the good folks of Wisconsin!
