A little more on the poll, 1 million is an estimate. The sample size is just over 800 people polled.

Most Americans understand this.
Um... 71% of Americans DO NOT want to pay any more of any kind of tax to pay for those collectively bargained demands, now or in the future. Game over.

I'd say the other poster indeed knows how polling works.. you find a district with a highly democratic area, ask them a question that would lean democratic, and then pretend it represents the state or the public.. yep.. Democratic "professional" polling at work.. oooh, thanks for the humor.... you guys never end..

Apparently, Obama agrees. He's done nothing for the federal employees who cannot bargain collectively. Walker has already called Obama out on his hypocrisy. Wonder why the libs haven't called out Obama, as well?

Oh, indeed I do. I also know that 272 people is nowhere near a reliable sample size.

Actually only 272 people said they would favor recalling Walker. Read the poll.

"Idiot"?? Could be that if you were in an IQ contest with him, you just might lose. And Lest you forget. Obama rec'd about 69.5 million votes. McCain rec'd about 60 million votes. No, most of Obama's constituients are not feeling about him the way that the WI people are feeling about Walker.
