Let's hope another 5-6% of Wisconsin voters come to their senses or Wisconsin will end up the Midwestern Mississippi.
Being a red state means elimination of the middle class, it means poor test scores for High Schoolers, it means obesity and a host of other maladies related to ignorance and enslavement.
Wake up Wisconsin, before it is too late
lol...if you are a liberal product, God help us all. You do know that some of the poorest high school test scores and rates of obesity occur in Democratically run states, correct? Although, I doubt it is related to which party is in power in much of any way actually.
How have Republicans convinced poor white trash to go after the last remnants of middle class economic strength, labor unions? Labor unions are already on life support, being whittled down to fairly small numbers (and in red states, eliminated altogether) and now these same unions are in the cross hairs of the wealthiest corporatists and their toadies like Walker, and they have the support of working poor in their attempts to eliminate whats left of the middle class?
It begs the question, is this the result of effective, repeated FOX style propaganda? Is it the Dumbing Down of America? Is it the enmity and jealousy of poor white trash at those in labor unions who believe in earning a livable wage?
Perhaps it is a combination of all of the above.
is that how liberals look at the middleclass and the workingclass....as trash????
what have liberals done in the last 30 years
liberals and their fascist ways have killed this once great country

The democrats strive for what is the real backbone of america, a strong middle and working class.

There hasn't been any liberals in any kind of strong position in politics as of late, but the closest thing is a strong democrat by the name of Clinton whom took over 15 years of horrifically failed right wing policies, and turned them around to create one of the most booming economies in the history of the nation. Record low unemployment, small business booming, the middle class thriving, it was great times under Clinton because that's what strong democratic policies do. Then once W came in and sent the nation into the crapper, he's shown quite clearly what GOP policies are all about. Insane spending and insane debt.

Reason: flaming
Rednecks and most GOP voters tend to be lower middle class or the poor, whom seem to have some kind of mental condition that they hate themselves and want to be destroyed by supporting the GOP.

wow, more attacks from the liberals
so poor people, workingclass, and middleclass that vote for the GOP are now not only TRASH, but rednecks according to the liberals
liberals have destroyed the middleclass
every liberal policy is pushing the middleclass to the poor and making the liberal elite rich
if liberals truely were for the middleclass then they would be creating jobs instead of shipping them overseas with their policies and high taxes
if liberals were truely for the middleclass then they would not be keeping the poor in poverty with the scraps of welfare... they would be pushing workfare and training for jobs

I'd really lay off the Beck and fox news, it warps the brain
Speaking of toilet paper, I just love how Demos use the words middle class for unions. That's like saying toilet paper when what is really being talked about is an enema. Clever word twisting. lol

The far right seems not to care at all about fraud, running fake candidates, using the constitution for toilet paper, etc,.. They just obediently obey what they are told like good sheep.
Tempest, what you and others who worship at the alter of those evil republicans miss, is that many states (most blue), counties, cities (Chicago), the federal government, even private companies, CANNOT afford the promises they made to employees many a year ago. Some knew and chose to lie, some were poor planners, bad economic times decimated others. But, the thread is common.
RI, NY, NJ, FL, IN, among others are all all changing their benefits plans, whittling them down. Hey, even the glorified GM, whom the savant saved,, is trimming their pension liabilities, cutting the promises, contractual and otherwise to the middle class, uh union members.
From Bloomberg news;
“These actions represent a major step toward our objective of de-risking (This means they do not have the $$$ to pay out, nor do they think they can afford to get the $$$$ together, without risking the financial health and viability of GM.) our pension plans and will further strengthen our balance sheet and give us more financial flexibility,” Dan Ammann, GM’s chief financial officer, said today in a statement.
GM said the moves, which follow Ford Motor Co.’s announcement that it plans to offer lump-sum buyouts, will lead to special charges worth $2.5 billion to $3.5 billion in the second half. The Detroit-based company projects future pension income to be reduced by $200 million annually. GM’s global pension plans were underfunded by $25.4 billion at the end of 2011, up from $22.2 billion at the end of 2010, according to federal filings."
Did Walker confront and break the union? Yes. He had too, as they had a stranglehold on Wisconsin's economic viability, via the high taxes on all Wisconsins and Wisconsin employers, necessary to support the lavish benefits of public employees.
Please stop your childish rants. They are off the mark and without foundation. At best, you look like you are on the payroll of the DNC, because there is no real world substance to your acqusations.

Bankrupting a state is no the way to do it.

And yet liberal fiscal policies are bankrupting the Nation.
