Looks like Scott Walker might get the Churchill treatment from voters despite all he’s done for them.

This just shows how stupid people are. They can’t wait to sabotage real progress.

I blame Ryan.
The 3rd most powerful person in Gov and he spent more time attacking his own Party than he did trying to fix WI

“Sadly when Republicans like Walker start fixing what is wrong the lesson voters take away is that it’s safe to vote for Democrats again.”

That’s a blue state thing when it comes to gubernatorial candidates. They elect a Dem to screw up the economy . Then they elect a Republican governor to fix it. Once fixed, they elect a Dem to foul it up again. Rinse and repeat gubernatorial politics. Their Senators are always Dems because Dem voters do not care that the garbage they send to Washington screws it up for the rest of the nation just so long as they are not in the state house to directly foul up their state economy

Yeah im sure Walker will have a hard time NOT! This is leftist wishful thinking. Another poll showed Republicans in good shape with 5 point edge.

I the 2016 presidential race they had Clinton up 46-36 in August . Walker and Vukmir are in good shape considering this poll’s built in bias

I’m sure Baldwin appreciates Johnson’s high profile campaign to undermine POTUS on trade. That will no doubt do wonders for GOP turnout in WI.

As I suspected, the WI Senate seat is very much in play, and Governor Walker needs to get us across the finish line.

November is not going to go as planned for the Dems.

Perhaps the polled Democrats fear being outed by the pollsters so they say they’re going to vote the party line.

“Marquette Law School Poll of Wisconsin voters...”

These are the same left wing propagandists who had Walker losing the last gubernatorial race by 5 to 7 points.

One example of their stupid polls:

A new Marquette Law School Poll (Nov, 2, 2016) finds 46 percent of Wisconsin likely voters supporting Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and 40 percent supporting Republican Donald Trump in the race for president.

Wasn’t this the same poll outfit predicting Scott Walker’s demise in the 2012 recall election? Wisconsin has its share of liberals to be sure, but it ain’t California, New York, or Illinois. There are plenty of decent, common sense folks in the state who have pushed back against the leftist scum trying to destroy it. If that wasn’t the case Walker would have never won his first election back in 2010, nor would Trump have won there two years ago. Walker will win in November by three to five points!

Candidates, special interest groups and political committees spent nearly $81 million in the failed attempt to recall Republican Governor Scott Walker in June [2012]…

Walker’s opponent is still largely unknown, despite being the elected head of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction for several years. Once the negatives start getting out, I suspect Walker will pull ahead; he is, after all, the known quantity in this race, and Evers is not exactly a compelling figure.

On a positive note, the US senate race is a statistical dead heat, with Leah Vukmir already tied with the incumbent, despite being less well know outside the SE corner of the state.
