I am not from WI but when I got based at MKE I registered to vote here so I could vote and support not just Sen. Russ Feingold (a true independent thinker, the only senator with the balls to say NO to the USA PATRIOT act after 9/11) but also support the Democratic challenger to douchernatorial candidate Scott Walker.
Of course we all know Scott Walker won (thanks to the much higher turnout of the elderly during mid-terms and much of his personal fortune spent on campaigning) but I was curious to see what you fellow union folk thought of this scorched-earth power grab to attempt to destroy the public worker's unions for state employees...?
In case you were wondering, this budget shortfall is by his own design... He deliberately created an artifical budget deficit just to give him an excuse to go on a union busting spree with NO compromize and NO effort to find common ground... he is just intent on doing his own thing, the will of the people (who elected him!) be damned.
