(68,868 posts)Walker is more of a polarizing figure--we sometimes assume that if we hate a guy with great intensity that others agree.

(13,770 posts)She put it as a waste of money we don't have. and that we werre better off focusing on Assembly and Senate seats in November rather than a recall.

Hope she doesn't mind minimum wage jobs for all but the Koch Bros and friends.

(24,135 posts)it all makes sense.
The Walker heads were all talking about the money, the money it cost the state. I saw none of this on MSNBC, but it was all over WI TV.
Wow, Good thing it was only Walker and not Dick Cheney or Hitler.

So, let me get this straight. She's a Dem/Liberal. Dems recall a crooked Rightwing Governor for attempting to destroy the working class. They succeed. She, rather than join them in order to save the working class, decides to vote for the crooked rightwing Koch Brothers bought-and-paid moron, Scott Walker.
Sounds like a wild story conjured up to make some kind of point. Like maybe, 'you liberals should stop your nastiness towards Republicans'.
And you bought this fairy tale?

Too bad someone like your friend doesn't see that.
