Emotions raw
Go into Milwaukee, and it's easy to find discouraged voters who want Walker out. He doesn't understand, they say, that they only want help, not handouts.
Greg Renden, a public defender, took a pay cut. He blames Walker for making an already dismal economy worse. "He's abdicated the role of trying to help people in need," Renden said.
The splintering that started when Walker cut bargaining rights has seeped into other issues: austere budget choices; a voter-ID law; removal of a law that allowed people to seek punitive and compensatory damages in state court over employment discrimination; and efforts to encourage iron-ore mining.
More than a year after thousands of protesters marched around the state Capitol in Madison, emotions remain raw.
"We don't want the state taken over by the Koch brothers," said Mary Jean Nicholls, a former teacher, referring to Charles and David Koch, billionaire industrialists who are among Walker's key supporters.
Craig Dedo, a computer consultant and Walker supporter, said the race boiled down to one question: Who runs Wisconsin? "The Democrats and the unions, who are the takers?" he asked, "or the Republicans, the party of the private sector and the people who pay the bills?

For those in Wisconsin, please go out and vote for Scott Walker, and watch Ed Schultz's head explode.
VoterId is supported by 70 percent.
Walker wins by 6 driven by us pissed off tea party cheeseheads.
“We don’t want the state taken over by the Koch brothers”
Goofball. A brain replaced by an absorbent sponge sucking off propaganda and unable to perform addition and subtraction.
At times I wonder if they actually interview people (most likely the same libs for all articles) or send a request to the Onion. Same talking points. No wonder libs always vote rat, no matter who the candidate is.
overpaid government workers are not people in need. Scott is priortizing those people in need
I was at a rally today at the Germantown Victory center - late announced visitation by Walker, Kleefisch and Reince Prebus. The crowd was EXTREMELY enthusiastic and since we were right next to the major freeway going into MKE, lots of big signs could be seen by those passing by. Many honked wildly when they saw our Walker signs.
We are CAUTIOUSLY optimistic, due to the massive voter fraud going on in MKE and Madison. We're glad voter ID is not in place as the screeching left would point to that and say that's why Barrett lost - disenfranchised voters. But nothing stops them from showing some ID for a bottle of wine or a 6 pack at the local stores - state law donthchaknow.
We're going to do this, folks. Thanks so much for the nationwide support and your prayers are quite welcome.
Wisconsin - Let's get er done!
Yes it does.(to the title "Wisconsin recall vote raises issues crucial to voters nationwide")
“Helping people in need” is not a gummint function. Sorry to say, gummint sucks at charity. This is the falacy that got us into the mess we are in.
Greg Renden, a public defender, took a pay cut. He blames Walker...And I blame him for not getting a good enough education to have a private criminal law firm hire him.
All I can add is if Walker is doing such a terrible job, I’M all for him. He has created jobs in a dismal time period, he cut my (and many of my friends property taxes, straightend out our financial woes 9well almost) and still leads in the polls. All the negative stories are nothing more than the liberals crying because they can and soon, will no longer get their way, unless the cheat and win the recall election. Get out and VOTE FOR WALKER ON TUESDAY!!!!!

Yes it does
BUMP!
It just GALLS me to hear some guy whining about how his pay has been cut due to Walker’s policies - well guess what?
Thanks to OBUMMER’s policies, I not only have lost 2 jobs in the 3 1/2 years he’s been in office, my medical insurance has increased, while the coverage is now DISMAL ($1500 deductible BEFORE THEY COVER ANYTHING!!!) and my pay is a good 33% less than it was in December 2008 back when Bush was still President. They just thought they could live in UTOPIA while the rest of us got sent to PURGATORY (And I’m not even Catholic!)....

Obama’s goal is to destroy the middle class through..
1) regulation
2) Healthcare destruction
3) Tax increases.
So far, I would give him an A for destruction, and an A+ for future destruction(tax increases and regulations not yet in effect). Moreover, it appears that no GOP politician in D.C. will stand up to him,and Obama knows this. Therefore, if he wins another term, he will stop at nothing.
