Real News From The Blaze:' Wisconsin Liberals Start Pointing Fingers as Walker Recall Looks Unlikely
May 25, 2012
As Gov. Scott Walker enjoys a comfortable lead in polls before the Wisconsin recall election, leaders in the state's unions have expressed frustrations with the DNC for a late start on the purse strings putting them at a decided disadvantage before polls open week after next. The election will without a doubt be watched by legislators across the country interested in, or already in the process of, applying reforms in their state similar to those carried out by Walker.
