Washington, D.C.—Gov. Scott Walker (R-Wisc.), in a taped telephone conversation released last night, appears to suggest political coordination while talking to someone he believes is one of his political donors, David Koch--a possible illegal action, according to campaign watchdog Public Campaign Action Fund.

Beat me to it. Was ready to post it until I saw that you had. At least there was no six hour rat hole to fall into, to get at the truth.

The director is a leftist community organizer, and his right-hand man was a Dim operative working against DeLay and McCain.

Oh cr*p, what about the caller who taped. Is taping a conversation without the other persons knowledge against the law in WI?

No, WI is a one party consent state. However, if the call came from another state, that states laws and federal laws could come into effect.

You’re making the point of the Left’s strategy. The Left/Socialist Democrats are far less concerned with taking Walker down — they simply want to cause concern among the Republican caucus because the Left knows that Republicans wobble at the slightest provocation even in the face of certain victory.

Hopefully that won’t happen in Wisconsin because the stakes are so high ... but I wouldn’t bet on it. The Left knows how to play dirty better than does the Right. The Left will do anything in the pursuit of power -— anything.

The left would like it to be illegal for elected officials to speak to their constituents.

F the left.

DWC - you wrote: Wow. You haven’t responded....Troll.

Based on your comment I went to read others by chessplayer. He's been here for five years. In a recent posting he called Obama an "empty suit". He strikes me as more of a curmudgondly iconoclast than a HuffPost troll.

I also saw this, which may explain his absence. I have myself sometimes posted things on the way out the door and not been able to respond until several hours later.

I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

I have what are called ;silent; migraines. (migraines without the pain) Often I get spots/flashing lights in my eyes. Sometimes it gets bad enough that I have to sit down because of the disorientation. I had my eyes checked because I thought I was getting glaucoma and that was causing it, but the tests showed no sign of glaucoma. The doc said the silent migraines (spots/flashing lights are being caused by changes in the tiny blood vessels behind my eyes. Dilating/constricting. I take afternoon naps, and the episodes occur in the the hour after I get up

Walker may be toast because of that prank call.

No, but the prankster is.

BS, if anything the little prankster may end up behind bars. It’s up to the Koch Brothers if they have their attorneys go after the mindless slug.

Walker didn’t even get close to a problem. Sheesh take a chill pill.

Ahhh, I remember the Linda Tripp thing and how in Maryland it was against the law. Well, it would be interesting to track down whoever it was that made that call. And I wonder what the real implications of the conversation will be? Just when you think the left can’t get any lower, they do.
