“It's a pocketbook election”
(the unions are spending millions)
“Guv Walker doesn’t have anything to worry about”
Walker has limited funds.
“with falling unemployment and rising tax receipts in the state’s coffers”
That's what the unions hate about his administration, his policies are working good...for the little people.
The unions would kill to get him out of office...literally!
Wisconsin [like much of the nation] was in dire straits before Walker took office.
Walker pushes through reforms dealing with unions, etc. and things have started to turn around.
Business is being attracted to the state.
Unemployment is going down.
This reduced unemployment is adding revenue to the state treasury in the form of increased income tax receipts [due to more employment].
The unions are pissed since a lot of their “bennies” were eliminated. So, they want a recall to “put things back the way they were”.
They are fuggin’ crazy!
All Walker needs to do is say:
“There more jobs in the state, your taxes have not gone up, and there is more food on your table for your children ...”
