Three weeks until the Wisconsin recall election, and Gov. Scott Walker has been massively outspending his Democratic rival. But now Tom Barrett may be getting some help from the DNC and its Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

This is a Local issue, not a National one.
Next Debbie Whats-Her-Name-Schlitz, is a buffoon at best.
Stupidita, we don't want it to become a national issue.....don't you get the point?
of course not, after all you already named yourself stupidata.
If this isn't a national issue, why did every Republican governor do exactly the same thing at exactly the same time?
Why was Walker to every state in the union asking for help, Walker made it a National issue.
They're not all Republican!
Welcome to California! Our Democratic Governor is asking for State employees and Unions to make concessions. You'll quickly see why they attack fire and safety jobs after reading this...

I guess he's the exception that proves the rule.
On the contrary -- failure to defeat Walker and his agenda will have ramifications for folks in every state where the GOP currently dominates the legislature! It is very much a national issue!
This is great news. As for being local, you are so incorrect stupidita, it's a state issue and it affects our nation. Or have you forgotten, "United we stand, divided we fall?
Oh let me guess, you are a right winger who doesn't believe in what our forefathers did.
Judy, You got it right. He lives up to his name.
What happens in WI does not mean it what will happen in other states, this is not the U.S.S.R.
Remember it is the "people" that live and work in the state of WI that have the say in how they want to live, not you, who does not live there...
Stop cleaning up your neighbors back yard and focus on your own.
Stupidita, it is already happening in other states, you need to keep up with what is going on. How about Ohio, Florida, Oregon, etc. Wake up, stupidita.
This from a person who wants to watch her neighbors having sex to ensure they are doing it the way she imagines god wants them to have sex and to make sure its 1 man 1 woman bound in a legal contract having sex. Anyone who doesn't fit her image is not allowed to have sex and should be sent to prison.
LOL oh yeah and left-wingers are so great at adhering to constitutional principles and preserving individual rights.
Your statement would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.
Stupida, IF it's a state issue, why has Walker been to 7 states raiseing money?
Chitown, what are these contstitutional usses you keep refering to? You keep talking constitution but never mention anything.
Chitown thinks the constitution is whatever he thinks it is. Right-wingers always quote the constitution until they don't agree with it.
How's this for unconstitutional openers?
The Second Amendment states: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
According to our activist, fascist, right-wing Supreme Court, any idiot with a gun is part of a well-regulated militia.
Agree?
The opening phrase"A well-regulated militia" was meant as a non-exclusive example—one of many reasons for the amendment.
This is a collective versus individual argument you are referring to, and the Supreme Court has upheld the individual argument not once but twice.
Hey Ed Heads...did you hear the latest?
THE DNC HAS PULLED ALL OF THEIR SUPPORT OUT OF WISCONSIN!!!!
They see the writing on the wall. I cannot wait to see big Ed after Walker gets re-elected. You wait...Adam is right. He wil blame it on something and try to spin it with cheating or whatever. Ed needs to say: "THE PEOPLE OF WISCONSIN HAVE SPOKEN" after this is done...no matter how it turns out.
Obama is in trouble. Latest poll. Romney 51%.......Obama 43%.
The DNC is in trouble along with Obama. Ed and his leftie loons and going to face the music.
Come on whomitmay....thankful mom....where are you and your name calling today?
Now Ed says the Debbie Vasserman Schlitz is going to save the day? Hey Ed, I thought you said that outside influence is bad!! Oh, thats only for GOP right? You leftists can do whatever you want....2 faced. Doppie Vasserman Schlitz can do what he..I mean she wants.....Unions are losing their hold on people.
I don't call you names, ever. I just never, never, never, never agree with you. I call the people you support in politics idiots because I believe they are. Once you get your facts straight and hey, I'm glad to know that I can get under your skin, or you would not be calling me out. But it does not make any difference, because they are NOTHINGS, AND ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE WORTH WHILE. Just look at all the stupid moves they make, and the things they say. LOL.
TM tea bagging republicans are allergic to facts, they live in the Fake outrage land Fox news created for them.
Johnny appearantely hasn't been keeping up on facts. What a surprise.
I'm not sure what an "Ed head" is but if you mean we get facts from Ed, I guess we are. But that's up to us and I for one, don't appreciate your name calling. Remember, 2 can play your game.
Did you guys hear the "gaffer" today in his latest speech.
I will tell you what is scary.....if something happened to our president now....who would take over. Is that scary or what?
I just heard the speech. Wow, scary. All he did was quote talking points and told of his mother praying her sons could become millionaires if they wanted to............
Secret service...please protect our president at all costs.
We can thank our lucky stars it isn't Palin waiting in the wings.
Of course they chose Palin to insure there would be a Democrat in the white house. The mess bush left was a trap set for a democratic administration.
Hey, can you imagine what a night mare it would be if mccain and sara payme were left in Charge. Holy Mary Mother of God! And it looks as if they have another line of idiots running......We need to pray long and hard on this one.
Joe is smarter than any republican you can name......I could make a list of the republican un-trust worth, but there is not room on the vine.
Well guys remember to the tea bagging republicans the insane delusional rantings of Reagan were words of wisdom to live by.
In Ronny's own words, "there you go again " whom. It will be interesting if Walker were in fact to lose and then the new Dem governor were to push through income tax hikes to give the state workers pay raises like the legislature in MD just did. Thankfully I don't live in that god forsaken state anymore. Some of the highest taxes and foreclosures rates in the country and they pass an income tax increase on folks making over $100k. Real intelligent move there with the fragile state their economy is in.
Some help Debbie Waterhose-Stunt is...she can't even form a complete sentence when she talks and on the rare occasion that she does, the sentence makes no sense to anyone. Don't know who is worse, her, Boxer or Pelosi....typical female democrats who can't make it in the private sector. All the gals have a good laugh when she goes on TV...better than watching Jay Leno.
And they are all still better then all of the GOP put together. But thats not hard really you just have to be smarter then a box of rocks to be better then a republican. Hows the weeper of the house working out for you.
Making fun of someone's name. Ten-year-olds do that.
Just because you don't understand the words that Debbie Wasserman-Schultz uses, does not mean SHE does not make sense. It just means that you obviously have not taken advantage of the free public education you have had the privilege of being offered.
Judy! Exactly!
@rufus - You are insulting female Democrats (in the US Congress). I'd like you to watch and listen to one of your favorite republican Congresswomen, Virginia Foxx (NC).
Let's not forget Bachmann!
It should have never been a question to helping the people of Wisconsin. Wisconsin is the light of the end of the tunnel.
This is absolutely a national issue. My one complaint with President Obama and the Democratic Party, is the fact that during the 2010 elections, they sat back and only helped in certain places (Nevada). The teabaggers should be resisted more by the democratic party.
If Wisconsin does not recall Walker, then Wiscosin will go red this fall, it is of the utmost importance that all Democrats across this nation get into this fight - NOW!
DemElizabeth~ I blame all the apathetic Dems that sat on their heinies on voting day in 2010, because they thought a mid-term election didn't matter. Well, I hope they learned their lesson that EVERY election counts, as does every vote. So they'd better get up off the couch and get to the polls in Nov. or they will be sorry for a long time to come if the Reps get in and take the House, Senate AND the Presidency.
AMEN MJB!
I like Debbie Wasermanshultz (sp), she may not be the best verbal advocate, but she sure better get the ball rolling at the DNC headquarters!
What do you say we all give MD/MI first crack at the poll question?
We can't stop the Supreme Courts ruling. But we can do this!

To Debbie Wassermen Schultz....Please stay home and don't come to Wisconsin. I know it is out of your way to help us defeat Walker. I thought you were one of the good guys but you have shown your true colors..You are all about yourself...
Since the terrific tenure of Howard Dean as Chairman of the DNC, his two successors have shown unbelievable incompetence when it comes to "fighting" the republicans. I thought that Debbie Wasserman Schultz would do a better job than Tim Kane, but she is proving that I overestimated her: she is worse.
IF you had more than enough Signatures to recall Walker why would you worry about a Poll? These guys will rig the Polls to discourage you to make you think you don't have a Chance, JUST VOTE !!! you've come this far Finish the Job !!
If it is true that the koch and adelson millions are having such an effect on the walker recall election, what does that say about the intelligence of the electorate and about the justices of the causes of the middle and working classes? If it is true that money from the national democrats is needed to defeat walker, what does it say about the justice of this recall vote?
Also, do you people realize that both koch and adelson are zionist jews? is defeating the working and middle classes now the zionist/jew agenda in the USA? If so, how can you expect debbie wasserman to help? She is a jew, too.
If the American people want their government to work for them instead of the wealthy and corporate world then every election must defeat Republicans for it is they who are robbing the American people of their rights and their economic freedom. The two most important elections that will thumb our noses at wealth and the corporatocrats is Wisconsin and Massachusetts. Defeating Scott Walker and Scott Brown is the imperative as it will show big money they cannot buy our society. They have proven where their loyalties are. It is OUR country, not theirs. It is simple. Just remember The Republican Party is the Party Against the People.
Democratic Mayor Barrett trailing in the polls, and the media television shows like Ed, keep insisting that people aren't stupid and see the real issues and vote accordingly. This more than anything proves otherwise. So when Scott Walker gets re-elected people just learn to swallow whatever he feeds you and be silent about it.
Walker's sick policies are felt nationally. Check out this link.
Report: Wisconsin lost nearly 6,000 jobs in April! You lied to us again Walker!
Ed reported Wed. night that 38% of union voters would vote for Walker. What is up with that! Can that be true. If so, it explains the red vote. Those unions better get on this because their existence is at risk and WI leads the fight.
Ms. Wasserman-Shultz's mailbox is full so can't leave a message. Where are the Dem's with the money to oust this Wisconsin union buster? As I watch my own company hire Bain Capital to screw their lifelong employees out of what was LEGALLY contracted to them, to have a secure future, I find it hard to believe the Democratic Party would turn their backs. If they do, this country is in for a large upheaval.
I urge all of you to go to the Whitehouse.gov website and sign my petition concerning the Democratic National Committee's failure to fund the Wisconsin Recall election campaign of Tom Barrett and others. This IS a National election, since the MSM will treat it as such if Scott Walker retains his seat. He MUST be removed as Governor, or we are in mortal danger of losing our democracy completely! Here's a link to my Petition:
