If Walker compromises, Wisconsin will deserve what it gets. Hopefully Walker will understand that doing the job is more important than keeping the job, and stay the course. I admire his courage.

So what’s the GOP endgame on this? They need to get this resolved fast. They are losing support, and the longer it goes on, the better it is for the unions. (duh, that’s how unions operate.)

You know, 43% isn’t disastrous

Typical democrat/media MO - create heat with push-polls, then attempt to turn it up by reporting it.

But the day of reckoning is coming - we need to remember who it was that got us there.

The only poll that really counts is in 4 years.

Is it me. Or is HotAir turning into RINO central... since Michelle sold it?

They seem to regurgitate all the leftwing memes/propaganda and republish them as truth.

It is so easy to make phony polls.

This is why we have a republic, not a democracy. Governing by poll numbers negates a politician doing what is right, even if it is not popular at the moment. We have elections to decide whether we want to keep a politician. I hate these polls.

This poll indicates that Republicans are not doing an adequate job of explaining, in terms ordinary citizens can understand, the simple facts of how public employee unions differ from private sector unions.

The average citizen does not realize how the unions combined coercive power with government power threatens the liberty of individuals in every county and state--indeed, the very nation itself.

Last poll touted about Walker .. was skewed 50% with Union Members or Family Member was Union.

This sounds like more of the same, and I need 2 more sources before I’ll believe it.

If it came from the NATIONAL ENQUIRER, I’d only need 1 more corroborating source.

[but limiting bargaining rights does nothing to balance the state’s budget situation and is really just an attempt to get rid of public employee unions]

People are so ignorant. Walker need to do a better job explaining his position to the voters.

Walker did not draw a line in the sand. The rotten democrats did by running instead of getting on the floor and act like legislators. This is a pile of crap along with the polls.

WPR is not my idea of an unbiased source.

Whenever Republicans try and do the right thing they are demonized in the media to the extent that they loose favorability with the people.

The only way the Republicans can win on anything is to develop a spine and stand their ground. Stop letting a corrupt media dictate all our policies dammit!

Why we shouldn’t fret over early polls like this, or what the MSM tells us:

“Reagan was, for all his optimism, running out of time... By 1982 it was an axiom in the White House that Reagan, like so many of his modern predecessors, would be a one-term president. I believe that Reagan will not run again.”

—Lou Cannon (Reagan biographer, WaPo columnist)
January, 1982
