Divide And Conquer

&feature=player_embedded

Just received this email... Please send this out to everyone you know....

Contribute now to Defeat Scott Walker. Elect Tom Barrett on June 5

After Walker says "Oh yeah" to assaulting working, middle-class families, the Koch strategist in the video pledges to do whatever she can to help advance Walker's war.
She then made a $500,000 contribution to his campaign.
Walker's Wisconsin is a pay-to-play government where backroom deals are made, promises are broken, and the average Joe takes a pay cut while mega millionaires fund his right-wing extreme agenda and Wisconsin suffers.
That's not the Wisconsin I know and love.
I'll fight for the people's interests and bring open, honest government back to Wisconsin. But first I need your help. Make a donation of $5 right now to help us win on June 5.

1. This is how Repubs talk to each other when they think nobody else is around.

2. It plays right into Barrett's campaign of uniting Wisconsin.

3. Facebook this morning has pictures of Barrett talking to a crowd of people carrying "I Stand with Walker" signs..shaking hands with them...this is the finest "uniting" image he could have ever asked for..the contrast between the soundbite in the video "...it's a divide and conquer thing..." and Barrett shaking hands with opponents is too good to pass up.

4. Snotty Scotty's pandering, radical style is fully on display for all to see...give money to the Barrett campaign get this video out NOW!!!!

1--He actually knew he was being filmed...he said so today.

2--I heard she gave him $500K to fight the recall...and we know why, she wants no more unions in Wisconsin, public or otherwise.

He is an ultra corrupt evil devil and the ultimate disgrace to his state and nation.

Why would ANYONE think of voting for this walking piece of trash?

I just DONATED to the Barrett campaign from my state. I hope everyone will join me.

Damn, you must miss Baldy by now. Will Angus run? What're the chances of flipping Snow's Senate seat?

The Republican Party here in Maine has been fighting with itself as elsewhere (Ron Paul v. Romney). Paul supporters just took over the GOP convention last weekend. Bwahahahaha. Gov. LePuke has been the worst governor in the history of the state and has low approval ratings. Angus King is running for US Senate and is favored. We will most likely take back the Maine House and very possibly the Senate too. How can you help? Donations to the Maine Democratic Party. Best way. I will be donating to Barrett some more between now and election day, and I may do some phone banking from home too. Thanks.

We all know now that Scott Walker wants to make this state Right to Work. Even in his journal sentinel editorial interview he dodges the question about what he would do if that bill gets to his desk, he just says the reality is its not going to happen.

I have to say the Scott Walker ads are glittery and make me want to barf in a Sarah Palin kind of way.

This new Barrett ad is the best I have seen. How to Rip Apart Wisconsin by Scott Walker
