I thought his main goal was to get jobs for Wisconsin. Again he will be traveling around the country campaigning for Republican candidates ignoring Wisconsin's dismal job creation numbers under his regime.

My only hope is that he gets EXACTLY what he deserves.

"Walker spoke by telephone from Chicago." Wth is he doing in Chicago? I guess Wisconsin "outsourced" their Gov. too?

He's working with Rahm to become as good with Republicans as Rahm is with Democrats.

Nah - he is trying to tell Gov Quinn how to cut off people at the knees to get the pension reform under control.

It will be poetic justice when Scott Walker is indicted just before Labor Day.

This is all rather pie-in-sky type speculation. Walker's 'reforms' have yet to do anything tangible.

Incomes in Wisconsin have now fallen to $49,000, and the average property tax payer has exactly $11 in savings to show for it.

Wake me up when all this ideological posturing saves the world.

i would bet that the koch brothers will buy his way out of jail. money talks and he will get away with it. after all he is above the law. I SURE WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE LAW TAKE HIM DOWN. but he will get away with it

You are assuming he will be indicted, prosecuted, found guilty, and now that the dreaded koch bros will buy him out of jail and he will get away with it.

Get away with WHAT ?

And why would you want the law to "take down" someone just because you don't agree with him ?

If we ever get any law in this nation -something besides that applied only to the 99% by the 1%- we'll call you. Stay by the phone.

"Scott Walker has more political capital than any Republican in America after surviving this month’s recall election."

He's got all the Koch Bros. can buy him..... but please, God, keep him in the Dairy State. Let him play with the cow pies on Bandini Mountain there. We don't need or want his, uh, politics in the rest of the country.
