Well, cheeseheads, we may in fact be as STUPID as people around the country say we are...

Walker got a five point bump, up to 43% approval in the latest Marquette poll-- basically where he was before he started his winning 2014 re-election campaign. Also, Trump and Ron Johnson now in statistical dead heats with HRC and Feingold respectively.

Puke.

Feingold will mop the floor with Johnson this time around. He is prepared for the October surprise from the Koch Brothers. And Hillary should pull 60% plus in the General.

I guess the strategy of running against public education at all levels works for Walker.

Just can't believe so many Republicans and Indys are so eager to turn this state into Kansas. That IS what's happening, slowly but surely. Walker is doing the same shit as Brownback- they just had a couple decade head start in Kansas.

What do we attribute this to? Walker's secret listening sessions...by invite ONLY. Where he lies thru his teeth. The only good thing about WI this year was our primary. No Trump. I cannot say anything to those who say we are nuts. We are.

I can't understand on what basis his numbers have surged. It's a huge deal for me personally as I work for the state and have two kids in public schools.

I guess there are enough people here willing to turn into Kansas...
