I am already wearing my flameproof suit, so bring it on.
I believe that Walker is overreaching and will loose the folks in the middle without which he would not have been elected.
As long as he stuck to budget and compensation issues he would have been fine. Limiting teacher/public employee union negotiations to monetary issues and prohibiting negotiations involving working conditions is just the opposite of what he should be doing. The biggest personnel problem in education is administrators who are lazy and/or incompetent and sit around dreaming up policies like zero tolerance so they never have to make a decision themselves.
He MAY win the in the short term but in long run he will loose both and we will have lost another opportunity to get our financial house in order.

I've heard nothing in his proposal that sounds like overreaching.

If we are to save our states and our country, we need Gov. Walker to win this battle so it can be repeated in other states. The Left clearly sees how important this moment is, as evidenced by Obama inserting himself and their rent-a-mob bussing program.

Unfortunately or me, here in CA, we'll have to do it all ourselves via the initiative process since all statewide offices are Dems and our legislature is over 60% Dem in both houses. They're 1-2 seats from supermajorities but they can already act with impunity even with their numbers.

“I believe that Walker is overreaching”

Fascinating... I’ve seen a couple left wing freaks use that exact same expression on Facebook over the past few hours.
