I expect that the MJS is trying to show that Walker has tons of out-of-state $ coming in, but so what? The Unions asked for this showdown, let them pony up if that's how they want to play it. In the end, with all the $ that gets spent, we'll all go home with the same people in office.

Unions, including outside of Wisconin, donating $7 million to Democrats. But, shhhh, the Journal Sentinel will forget that among their daily anti-Walker stories.

I don’t see any mention of: We Are Wisconsin (Union goons) or The Greater Wisconsin Committee (More Union Goons)

“In the end, with all the $ that gets spent, we’ll all go home with the same people in office.”

My prediction as well. What a waste of tax dollars. Grrrr!

And campaign donations! There are so many candidates who need money this year, and all that I can afford has gone to Walker.
