Dear Friend,
We need immediate and substantial help if we are to stop the unions from destroying those State Senators who voted for education and labor reforms in the Wisconsin State Legislature earlier this year. If these Senators are punished for their votes, it will intimidate conservatives throughout America and the efforts to limit public employee union power and promote education reform will be set back by a decade.
By limiting collective bargaining to wages and benefits, Wisconsin effectively permitted school districts to override teacher tenure to dismiss bad teachers, use student test scores and other indications of merit to determine teacher pay, promote school choice, and lay teachers off based on merit not seniority. These reforms are vital to reforming our now defunct public school system. If the courageous state senators who voted for these reforms are manhandled by the union leaders, it will stop similar efforts in Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New York, Florida, California, Texas and a host of other states.
We have just three weeks left to mount an effective ad campaign to win this battle. The unions are pouring money into the fight. Please, please, please give us funds to battle for these reforms.

Anybody know what is going on there??? Does the GOP have a site..
Dick Morris is begging for money again, the degenerate toesucker.
It’s amazing how few communists have taken control of America. And the will to destroy these Unions and their control seems impossible until CWII.
While instead they should be outright saying the truth... Stop the union thugs from looting your money. A good commercial would be breaking down actually how much of school dollars make it to the classroom, and how much is looted at each step of the way for health care, vacation days, retirement plans, early buyouts, etc.
It is the best opportunity to go on the offensive. Don't stand there defending yourself, stand there attacking the union thugs, make a referendum by the voters to go even further. Openly show what the union thugs are protesting, the minor contributions to the massively subsidized and noncompetitive health care program, and call for open bidding on these contracts. Cap the contribution for health care, give it to the employee, and let them buy whatever insurance they want to.
I doubt this is happening, or will happen, because you just can't offend any of the union thugs who might vote Republican.

Here they come.
The Left is issuing secret marching orders for Wisconsin.
And the same Politico "reporter" who "covered" the recent judge race won by a conservative turns out to be the author of Politico's bogus talk radio pay to play stories on Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and Glenn Beck.
First, the leaked marching orders for Wisconsin.
Democracy for America's Jim Dean, brother of Howard, says the Left's push to recall six Wisconsin Republican Senators "is almost ready to go and it's the biggest campaign we've ever run."
In an e-mail obtained by The American Spectator, Dean is vowing he will have "thousands of volunteers from across the country to make calls to voters in Wisconsin" in what he calls "the biggest campaign we've ever run." The calls will be made in conjunction with the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC). In addition to flooding Wisconsin with calls from out-of-state activists, the campaign will consists of "hard-hitting television, radio and web ads" targeting the six Republican state senators for "their votes to destroy unions and middle-class families."
A recall election is one of those things in which the perpetrators win even if they lose. An incumbent surviving a recall has wasted money, time, and energy, has suffered diversion from his actual work, and must deal with the bad publicity inevitably arising from the effort. Recall elections have no apparent downside for the left; it's a wonder they haven't been using them all along. (AT)

The Green Bay School District recently sent a memo to teachers indicating they would be required to work an extra half-hour a day and would lose planning time to make room for staff and other meetings. This brought teachers — many emotional — to the School Board, saying they feel betrayed that they weren't first consulted about the changes. Many said morale among Green Bay teachers is low and expressed worry these changes could be the tip of the iceberg.
Dear Friend,
In this video commentary, I discuss the stake in the Wisconsin recall election where the union is trying to punish those who voted for Governor Walker’s reforms.

Thanks for watching,

.... the days are dwindling and - per norm - the RNC - any republican big guns - are nowhere to be seen - nothing republican anywhere... the conservative media is also AWOL but they will be the first to criticize if this all falls down in the final act...alot of ground has been gained - 2/3... Klopper's defeat and the supreme court decision... and this final phase needs to be a success, also. So many people have been brave and put a lot on the line - and that doesn't seem to matter much to the people who could and should be lending a hand. People complain about cowards - but they leave the brave ones - to do the job alone, sound familiar?
What I am hoping is Sarah and the TP Express - and other notables - all the presidential candidates - the next 3 weeks make WI the place to be... I don't understand why Hannity and people like that who often go on location aren't out there generating attention - lifting the morale of the boots - alot of national people are dropping the ball on this, big time...
Everytime he is on O'Reilly or Hannity as an analyst his entire "analysis" is a thinly disguised pitch for his website. It usally goes something like,
"Yes Bill I agree that Obama is wrong and I've discovered something far more disturbing, which you can read about at DICKMORRIS.COM. That's a good point Bill, I actually talk about that in a recent column on DICKMORRIS.COM Well Bill the Republicans must defeat Obama in 2012. I have a surefire plan than can be found at DICKMORRIS.COM Oh, Bill before I go, let me mention my website DICKMORRIS.COM
I'm surprised that Fox let's him get away with, after all I imagine they're paying him to be an analyst not to have a venue to hawk his website.
High risk:
Randy Hopper (Fond du Lac) won by only 163 votes in 2008. I'd call that one at very serious risk.
Alberta Darling (River Hills) won by 1% in 2008, just over 1,000 votes. I'd call that one at serious risk.
Some risk:
Dan Kapake (La Crosse) won reelection by less than 3% in 2008, about 2500 votes, slightly smaller margin than when he took the seat. He ran for congress in 2010 and lost by almost 4%. I'd say there's some risk to this seat.
Little risk:
Sheila Harsdorf (River Falls) won by 12% in 2008, over 11,000 votes. Probably safe.
No risk:
Rob Cowles (Allouez) won with 99.35% of the vote. I think he's safe.
Luther Olseon (Ripon) won with 99.35% of the vote. I think he's safe too.
