and I've even seen an AP article to that effect. But Christie has too many nurses' shoes sticking out of his butt. And does Walker think HE's going to win over the labor vote?

McCain was the piss-poor pick of a piss-poor litter; Romney was the piss-poor runt of a piss-poor litter. The GOP thinks they've got a couple of alpha males now?

He's gone after labor in a big way in a state with high union membership yet managed to win three elections during a 4-year timeframe, the last one by a much larger margin then the first two. I don't know what Wisconsinites might have been thinking, but does mixing cheese with beer (as opposed to, say, wine?) adversely affect one's better judgment?

He's doing what people elected him to do, as much as the rest of us don't like it
