In Wisconsin we had the recall election primary. The unions poured money into Kathleen Falk's campaign, and she lost badly on the Dem side. Of course Gov. Walker won handily, but now he has to face Tom Barrett. Again.
Will the unions pour more money into Barrett's race? It's a conundrum because Barrett (current Mayor of Milwaukee) has been using Walker's so-called "anti-union" reforms to save money in Milwaukee. The unions are furious. Barrett has also allowed thousands of jobs leave Milwaukee over the last decade, and his hypocritical rhetoric blames Walker who has been in office 1 1/2 years and been under fire the whole time.
