That explains why the commercial hasn’t been made.

So you swallow the Washington compost uncritically?

Do you get that Wisconsin’s Constitution requires a balanced budget? Do you understand forecasting processes?

The left will never give credit to Walker for showing how successful conservative governing principles have been.

******While there were many concerns brought up throughout the budget process - some of which still exist - the guts of this budget are a win for Wisconsin taxpayers. It could have been better, but on the whole, it keeps the state moving in the right direction.

There are no new taxes. There are no tax increases. Bonding is at its lowest level in recent memory. Major education reform plans were included. And prevailing wage was repealed at the local level and reformed at the state level.

If you are a real conservative, you should identify with Walker’s success and try to have your state emulate it.

Also see BlueNgold's post as to why the commercial wasn't made.

It is true that Walker’s administration projected a $1 billion surplus but faces a $2.2 billion deficit. A story in the Chicago Tribune late last month said:

It wasn’t long ago that the forecasting arm of the Wisconsin legislature was predicting that state government by mid-2015 would be flush with a surplus topping $1 billion, which Gov. Scott Walker could have showcased in his bid for the Republican presidential nomination. Today, that projected surplus has morphed into a $2.2 billion budget deficit that Republican lawmakers are struggling to fix.
