Clinton rallies Wisconsin Democrats before recall

Former President Bill Clinton rallied Democrats in Milwaukee today on behalf of the city's mayor, Tom Barrett, who's locked in a close race with Republican Gov. Scott Walker in a nationally watched recall election.

Clinton told the crowd at a downtown riverfront park that Tuesday's election is about much more than the state of Wisconsin and what's best for its residents.

He said people nationwide are looking to Wisconsin as an American battleground. Clinton said states that are recovering economically have embraced "creative cooperation," not "constant conflict" — a reference to Walker's move to eliminate collective bargaining for most public employees.
