Walker is massively pro-amnesty.

The Marxists NEVER will give up. Be prepared for this sort of attack and battle for as long as the Republic stands.

In other news, former Florida Chief Fianancial Officer Alex Sink, has decided not to run for Congress in November. After supporting ObamaCare and having her butt handed to her in a special election defeat, she has decided to search for "other opportunities to serve."

Steve Israel, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said the party remained confident its nominee could win Young’s former seat in November. It was not immediately clear who that candidate would be.

If the RATS plan to run against Walker on a platform of giving power back to public sector unions, they will be crushed at the polls.

Even in liberals states, the taxpaying voters are smart enough to hate public unions!

Walker at a 49% favorable rating. Does that mean in an
honest, objective media atmosphere he would be at
65%?

Senior officials with American Bridge 21st Century – the group’s full legal name — told POLITICO that the oppo-slinging outfit’s staff will grow to about 90 people, including 50 trackers deployed to monitor GOP candidates throughout the country. That’s more than double the number of camera-wielding operatives it employed last year.

http://www.politico.com/story/2013/07/psst-gop-american-bridge-is-watching-94831.html#ixzz2z42QprCN

American Bridge 21st Century is a liberal super PAC that conducts opposition research to aid Democratic candidates and organizations.

The group was founded in November 2010 by David Brock

In 2004, Brock founded Media Matters, a liberal website that monitors the media for “conservative misinformation.”

Rodell Mollineau, a former Sen. Harry Reid staffer, is the group’s president. Its chairwoman is Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, a former lieutenant governor of Maryland and the eldest child of Robert F. Kennedy.

As a super PAC, American Bridge can accept unlimited donations and is largely funded by major Democratic donors and labor unions. Billionaire hedge fund manager George Soros, a well-known supporter of liberal causes, is the group’s largest donor. Soros has contributed $1 million to the group as of June 30. The American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees has contributed a total of $575,000.

Other leading contributors include Rob McKay, heir to the Taco Bell fortune and chairman of the liberal Democracy Alliance, and Anne Earhart, heiress to Getty Oil fortune. Earhart has donated $600,000, and McKay has contributed $100,000.

American Bridge also has posted multiple opposition research memos on its website that target Republican candidates. A recent entry is a 290-page opposition research report on Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the Republican Party’s vice presidential candidate.

Doesn’t pouring millions of dollars into Wisconsin by the left actually create more jobs and help Walker?

Walker and his “failed job creation promise"

Any politician who promises to create jobs is a pimp and a liar.

Walker will always be hated by the Thief Party...he took away their permanent sinecures and endowments. The public school teachers were spitting mad that they had to contribute to their own health care and retirement. Dem pols and union members had a little game going on at the expense of the Wisconsin taxpayer. Walker broke up the crooked game, and now the cheaters want revenge.

If they exist, pictures need to be posted again and again of the damage the union thugs did to the State House protesting Walker’s take-down of the unions. The damage from the duct-taped signs is what I’m thinking about.
