This is part of a preplanned national level plan, to use the deficits and "cutting them" as an excuse to bust the unions.
How about if the Wisconsin legislator, just listens to their people, and ignores the National Party agenda that may not be what is best for their state.
Yup, you are absolutely correct - this is a preplanned national agenda.
14 senators have fled the state so the legislature can't reach a quorum and hold a vote. This has only been done in Wisconsin a few times ever, and always over huge issues (like taking away worker's rights, not pay cuts). Texas did this in 2005 I believe (although for completely different reasons).
It will apparently only take 540,000 votes to recall the governor next January. The vote break-down from last election is as follows:
Walker , Scott GOP 1,128,159 52%
Barrett , Tom Dem 1,005,008 47%
Langer , Jim Ind 10,531 0%
James , James Ind 8,287 0%
No Candidate/Virgil Lib 6,738 0%
In otherwords it would have been easy to recall him even if he hadn't started alienating some of his republican voters. Walker is just in it for the corporate kick-backs and I am certain he will just do what the Republican party tells him until he is removed.
