On Tuesday, June 5 - You will toss Scott Walker out of the governor's office.
Walker's wealthy GOP buddies all over the country have thrown millions of dollars into their nervous effort to save GOP Gov. Walker from a fate that he richly deserves - to be kicked out of Wisconsin.
Prepare yourselves for an avalanche of desperate television commercials, radio spots and "Robo-calls." Walker and his out-of-state donors will be lying through their teeth to convince gullible voters that he has done a great job for the State of Wisconsin and deserves to remain in office.
Aware Wisconsin voters know better. Workers know better. Walker can't bury all of his misdeeds, so he has resorted to buying voters with mountains of GOP money.
Scott was caught on videotape reassuring one female billionaire donor - who alone gave him $500,000 - that his strategy for turning Wisconsin into a completely red state is to "Divide and Conquer" the unions, the workers and the voters.
The Koch Brothers and others have sent truck-loads of cash, and "political hit-men" from previous GOP campaigns have come into town with their bags of "dirty tricks." People who don't even support Walker are accepting $100 or more to erect giant "I Support Walker" signs on their property. Some are being paid an hourly wage to go around acting like they are a Walker backer.
The new "deer czar" appointed by Gov. Walker wants to make deer herds the property of wealthy landowners rather than a public resource. That will make hunting a privilege of the wealthy. Getting a lease to hunt on that land costs around $2,000-$5,000 per gun.
Democrats around the country are rooting for all of you tireless determined men and women in Wisconsin. Stand up and vote on June 5, not only for yourselves, but for all across this nation whose futures are also seriously endangered.
