Scott Walker, the champion of the right of employees to not be forced into unions, has a massive bull’s-eye on his back, as the labor movement is engaged in an all-out spending spree to knock him out of office next Tuesday. Walker and his supporters have been subjected to the dirtiest political retaliation imaginable, and he has already survived a union-funded recall campaign that tried to end his political career mid-term.
As we noted Sunday, it appears that the Republican Governors Association, headed by Chris Christie, is pulling back on financial support for television ads in the home stretch.
Yesterday, Gov. Walker made it evident that he does not appreciate the limited help he is getting from the Christie forces. Alexander Burns reports in Politico:
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says he needs more help from the national GOP in his reelection fight — and an upcoming visit from New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie isn’t going to cut it.
Speaking with reporters after a morning campaign stop here, Walker said he is getting outspent on television and faces overwhelming hostility from national Democratic groups and labor unions.
Asked if he was satisfied with the support he’s received from national Republicans, Walker indicated he hopes to get more backup from the Republican Governors Association. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who chairs the RGA, is coming to campaign for Walker this week — but the Wisconsin Republican said he’s “not looking for surrogates.”
“[Christie] is coming because he asked if he could come and we weren’t going to say no,” Walker said. “But we’re not looking for surrogates. The people that have been campaigning with me are by and large from Wisconsin.”

It’s looking like Christie is secretly wishing that his powerful potential competitor for the 2016 nomination will flame out.
Christie is looking at the White House. Fagedaboutit.
I hope his view gets blocked by the Krispy Kreme store.
If Christie is that petulant and petty now, consider what he would be as president.
Scott...just give Krispy Kreme the last Krispy Kreme, is it really worth losing a hand over...ssshhhheeeezzzz.
Christie is scum.
Christie is such a slob. His speech before the republican convention was so lame. There is nothing appealing about the man. And the state of NJ is in the dumps under his leadership.
Hmmm... Sounds like a Bush-Cristie ticket, trying to clear the deck of Walker. Yes I am that cynical.....
RE: Christie is such a slob. His speech before the republican convention was so lame.
He spent 3/4 of the speech talking about himself and only mentioned Mitt Romney at the last part of his speech.
Watch it here if you don’t believe me:

This is how Conservatives and Conservatism are treated in the Republican party.
Christie didn’t give up all of that pasta for nothing !

Bingo!
Anybody who watched Crispy Kreme give the Keynote speech for Mitt in 2012 figured out its all about Crispy all the time. There is no redeeming feature to the guy. He is just all bad all the time.
I couldn’t bare to watch it again. It was a real sleeper. All I really noticed was how winded he appeared from having to climb a few steps.
Republicans forming a circular firing squad once again! Its as predictable as the swallows return to Capistrano.
