Unions that spent nearly $11 million on state Senate recalls last year have yet to air an ad on behalf of Barrett....................I wonder why!

I saw a yard sign this evening that said “Stand with Women”, they have nothing else to run on. I noticed the article said this was the first week there was parity in TV ads. That's false. They spent millions during the primary, all on ads attacking Walker. If anything, Walker's ads haven't been running very much. The barrage will come soon. Barrett's City of Milwaukee has the worst jobs record in the state and one of the worst in the nation. They couldn't have picked a worse candidate to run on a jobs platform. What I worry about is Republican turnout. We get very complacent, very quickly. The “Rats never do.

Belling had an interesting observation today, he went down to vote and there were VANLOADS of the usual suspects heading into vote for Tom Barrett....Turnout for Scott Walker is critical! It is going to be close with the fraud that is obviously happening....

It ain't over until the trunk-loads of "found" ballots start arriving, AFTER the Polls are closed.

I wouldn't be overly optimistic, knowing how Unions handle Elections (and Democrats handle Elections).

Stoopid Democrats...they make it a choice between a Socialist Witch and the Same Loser who Walker beat 2 years ago, then they double-down on the tired old rhetoric and national talking points like “WOW” despite facts that show Walkers reforms and Act 10 are not only “working” but in fact “have worked”.

Let’s hope this time they’ve not only shot themselves in the foot but blown the whole leg off...

I sent Walker a contribution and I’m a government employee and union member here in PA.

The pensions, pay and benefits are out of hand for government employees at the state and federal levels and in many government educational institutions and local governments to boot.

The effort to recall Walker, which began after he successfully pushed to remove the collective bargaining power of public employee unions, has become a nationally watched battle over worker rights.

Ah, the AP. They lie with such facility and ease!

The law did not remove public employees' collective bargaining rights over their corpulent salaries, only their equally corpulent pensions and bennies.

Walker is going to win.

Here is why:

1. Most of us work.
2. Most of have noticed that the snotty "Recall Walker" stickers are on nicer cars than we can afford.
3. We have had enough of State employees complaining about not getting enough as they brag about going on vacation and buying land in the UP of Michigan to build a summer home.

We are going to win and it’s not going to be close - even with the cheating.

Mark My Words.

Wisco will lead the way to November - major TP/Convervatives in Congress / local and national - Romney may very well be the next accidental Reagan.

I say all this living in Dane County WI - Suburb of Madistan - I’m in the belly and they know they are done - many many dems I talk to are pissed that there is even a recall and think this is killing them.

Recalls should only be used when crime of malfeasance has been committed by the office holder, NOT because a class of public sector unions disagree with the office holder’s policies.

"We are, internally, seeing things start to move in our direction in a very substantial way."

Is this progressive short hand meaning, "we think we have a way of stealing the election" or "we think we've got a judge that will let us have countless recounts until we get the results we want all we have to do is make sure we don't lose by more than 10 percentage points."???

"I feel like Walker does have the momentum," said Michael Brown, who was among those who organized the petition drive that netted more than 900,000 signatures to force the recall vote. "It's up to the people of Wisconsin to push back."

They ARE! They're pushing your recall into the dustbin of history!

This article is completely and patently dishonest. It isn’t Walker money. The Unions have raised an equal amount or more. It isn’t that Barrett JUST got the nomination and that Walker has been blanketing the airwaves with his message. For over a year and a half the corrupt media has played up story after story of the protests, the recall signature efforts, the “million” signatures gathered, the rage, etc. — for over a year!

The left can now paste ther “Recall Walker” stickers next to their Kloppenburg stickers. Hey, maybe they should put all their stickers on their windshields!

Yesterday and today, Mark Belling at Newstalk 11:30 AM radio, has been discussing the early voting that started yesterday. He said he went to vote yesterday, but could not get into the Milwaukee Municipal Building because vans were double parking dropping people off. He even went around the block and still could not park. One of the white vans had a sign on it that said Wisconsin Jobs Now.

On today’s show, Mark stated he figured the turnout was high yesterday because it was the first day of early voting, so tried again this morning. He did not go completely around the block but saw two more vans full of people; one was marked as Wisconsin Jobs Now Van # 16. This was at the Zeigler building.

He has spoken to people in Madison and has been told that the polls there are reporting 25-30 minutes wait times! While the Tea Parties and Republicans have been centering on our GOTV projects, we have missed the boat! June 5th is not the voting day, it is only the LAST day to vote. We could be voting from yesterday through June 5th! I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out Milwaukee and Madison are NOT voting for Gov. Scott Walker. Apparently, the same thing is also going on in Green Bay.

Besides that, some of the polling places in Milwaukee are staying open until 7:00 p.m. which benefits Tom Barrett. They are even going to be open on Sundays and Memorial Day! I have not heard of any of the suburban polling places staying open late.

Even with our calling, many people have Caller I.D. and are not answering the phones. The democrats have brought in people from out of state who have full-time jobs doing nothing but bringing people to the polls to vote. Many of these people are ones who would NOT normally vote. Therefore, the democrats are picking them up and waiting for them to vote and taking them back home-it can’t get easier than that.

Please visit the website http://wisconsinjobsnow.org/ and see the organization. They have maps that show pickup places, people can click on a link and request a pick up etc. There is no Republican effort to match this.

We MUST start offering rides and letting our conservative churches and organizations know to do the same. Please contact your local Republican office or Tea Party group and let them know if you are available to pick up voters who may have no other way to get to the polls. Ask your friends and neighbors to do the same.

Donald Driver wins Dancing with the Stars! Awesome! Now we need to have as many people vote for Governor Scott Walker on or before June 5th!
