WOODBRIDGE, Va.—Scott Walker warned Republicans at a rally here Saturday that Democrat Terry McAuliffe will be in the pocket of “big government union bosses” if he wins the Virginia governor’s race.

The Wisconsin governor, a conservative icon for breaking the back of the public-employee unions in his blue state and then beating back their effort to recall him, said Republican Ken Cuccinelli also “knows how to take on the special interests.”

“Do you want someone who is going to side with the big government labor unions,” he said at one of two stops ahead of Tuesday’s off-year election, “or do you want to someone who will stand with the taxpayers of the commonwealth?”

One of the about 100 supporters gathered in a field in this D.C. exurb waved a “Stand with Walker” sign from last year’s recall fight.

At an earlier stop in Spotsylvania, which drew about 150, Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus led the crowd in singing Walker a happy 46th birthday.

Walker is right. McAuliffe as governor means that Virginia isn't open for business but instead is for sale to the highest bidder. Please sign up to volunteer to help drive home the win to election day. Also there are plenty of rallies over the next few days. I'm going to the one with Ron Paul on election eve in Richmond.

Volunteer for Ken - for Governor

BTTT! I attended the Leesburg rally today with the Great One. They did a great job making clear what this is all about and why it matters.

It’s Monday. We’re at work. There were easily 200 at the rally I attended in Leesburg on Saturday.

And if that is a recap of a Saturday rally, most people don’t need rallies to know who to vote for. :^)
