Two weeks until the Wisconsin recall elections, and it’s the first real test of Citizens United. Can boots on the ground overcome a the big money being spent on advertising?
It's big money versus the people in Wisconsin

Ed, Big money, either that from the Unions or business can't vote, only the citizens can vote. The people will get their way when the election is over. Walker will remain the Governor not because of big money but because the people of Wisconsin support him.
Amen to that. Ed can spew all of the crap he wants to. I just was listening to his radio show briefly and he was talking about how he was just sick of all of the support for Walker that came from outside of Wisconsin.......when this entire time, Ed has been begging everyone outside of Wisconsin to help the recall effort.
You know, Ed just makes me want to puke when he slams the right for doing exactly what he does. What makes it right for him and wrong for the right.
Ed, when Walker wins and the people of Wisconsin do speak, own up to it. I don't want to hear a bunch of lame excuses about outside money, etc. Don't you know why not many on the outside of Wisconsin want to help the recall effort.....ITS BECAUSE THEY DO NOT AGREE WITH IT!!!!! Don't you get it Ed????
You can visit the state all you want....Hold meetings with your captive audiences and lie and spin to them. Right and truth will prevail.
Wisconsin they can spend themselves to the poor house. DO NOT back down and do not give up. Its your vote that will take Walker down and a nation who is routing for you! Its not over till its over. But if he remains in office it will be over for Wisconsin and i fear the nation. GO VOTE!!!!!
No problem Pam, I plan too and thanks for backing us here in Wisconsin. Walker must go!
Right, tax payers want to pay for unsustainable pensions, and over paid union members; Look no further then California if you want to see Wisconsin's future if Walker is defeated. This is not about the working people, it is about unions and Democrats engaging in mutual masturbation !
You are right Pam. The important thing is to go vote. Vote your own heart. Not what the right or the left tell you.
Examine the facts and cast your vote.
Whatever the outcome, I do hope Ed Schultz does not spin the outcome either way.
No, "the people" are the ones doing the actual voting in Wisconsin. It's a well funded conservative special interest group against a well funded liberal special interest group fighting it out because people outside of Wisconsin somehow feel like it's their business to tell "the people" what they should do. How about we let the facts stand and let "the people" decide for themselves? You know trust them to act in their own best interest. I know it's a novel concept but lets all mind out own business for a change.
John- 3232336 That would have been just fine but Walker brought in so much outside money instead of governing as he should have been, we are happy to hear others from all the states support us to get him out of office.
We could use Walker's policies here in California. The Public Sector Unions are killing our economy, 16 billion in the hole and the answer from our Governor, a democrat, is rise taxes. If all the Cops, Teachers, DMV employees, etc... simply paid 7% for the Health Care and 7% towards their own retirements we could put a good sized dent in the debt.
Walker when your done in Wisconsin, please move to California, we would appreciate your leadership.
People, there is zero outside money trying to defeat Walker ! Right, Ed ?
