When he was running Milwaukee County, he had to battle democrats, and never once increased taxes and always had a balanced budget. The only reason taxes increased and the budget didn’t get balanced, was the dems had more votes to override his vetos. But, he kept them from increasing it to outrageous levels. He was in that position for 8 years, and battled them all of those years.

Point taken. Don’t get me wrong I LOVE Scott Walker’s moxie and courage and determination. It’s about time and refreshing to see a Republican be conservative and stand strong. I should’ve stated this in my original post (insert apology here) that I was referring to one of the themes in the article that those (Republicans) in D.C. could take a lesson from Wisconsin. Republicans in D.C. don’t have the numbers Walker does now to get done at this moment what he’s currently done in Wisconisn (though it’s amazing what has been done for once by a Republican).
