Tonight is the next big step in the culmination of 15 months of protest over the radical agenda of Republican Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin.
It’s primary day in Wisconsin.
It is the first gubernatorial recall primary in Wisconsin’s history and on June 5, Wisconsin will hold only the third gubernatorial recall election in the nation’s history.
Scott Walker has collected millions for his campaign from all around the country, but he is still in a dead heat with the likely Democratic challenger, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.
The Nation’s John Nichols joins Ed tonight on The Ed Show at 8pET and 11pET on MSNBC!

kochroaches, that the best description of Walker I've heard. Thankful Mom,take a bow!
Scotty, have you got your Louis Vuittons packed? Better hurry, time is running short! And don't steal anything when you leave.
i think he was terribly bashed by the media to the piont where people thought he wasn't doing good. but he was actually trying to fix the debt. it wasn't perfect but the reason why all those people mobbed is because they were over spoiled children to put it roughly, when you cut a group of people off from something they don't need that they have had for ever they think that the thing is a God given right, another case of foolishness and biased media.
You're not an independent, you're a Republican trying to convince himself he's a free thinker. There must be an awful lot of "spoiled" people in Wisc, because they're going to send Scotty Boy packing. And all the money in Kochland isn't going to save him. And don't give me that cr@p he was trying to do good. The first thing he did when he got in was take the surplus and give it to his rich friends. And it hasn't gotten any better to this day.
when you cut a group of people off from something they don't need that they have had for ever they think that the thing is a God given right,
You mean like, more tax cuts for billionaires?
Scott walker is paid by the koch brothers, he has no intention of helping any middle class person in wisconsin so lets send him packing, his job creation is abysmall, all he did was cut and cut.
If someone cut your Pay and Benefits, and left you to scramble and cover your Bills how would you feel? Walker found out!!
I would feel I am not wanted, and go work else where.
But then why no feelings for the school janitor who was fired because she dared have a sign supporting walker in her cars back window? Does she also deserve not to have her pay taken away?
What pay and benefits did walker cut? I thought he just removed collective bargaining on benefits. That isn't cutting benefits, and you still can bargain on pay.
BYE SCOTTY BYE! Good Riddance.
The repubs answer to the corporations because they pay them, it doesnt matter what anyone says about them because they answer to the corporations so no tax cuts, no closing tax loopholes no giving up oil subsidies etc. copporate profits are up 16% last year so the repubs are working it. Get out and vote these cronies out!!!!
What tax cut have the republicans apposed?
I don't mind if you get rid of all the subsidies, oil, farm, ethenol, state dinners, information junkets. But just getting rid of half the problem will make it worse. You need to get rid off ALL of them. Look at all the corporate handouts pelosi funded. Just shy of a trillion dollars in one month. And didn't get rid of any of the others that were on the book, just new ones on top of all the bad ones.
It is a good thing Mitt Romney brought his etch-a-sketch on his trip to England. He was able to use it on his first day there to reverse his comments about Olympics security. - What A Guy!!!!
I am glad to see Mitt Romney broght his etch-a-sketch to England. He already has used it to cover up his comment about olympic security which seems to upset several english leaders. What a Guy!!!
