Has he not balanced the budget and isn't Wisconsin one of the leaders in job growth?

I don't have precise numbers on hand, but looking at Wisconsin vs. the nation as a whole shouldn't be heartening to Walker supporters.



Edited to use nonfarm for both, since Wisconsin only has nonfarm available.

Can you post the charts for the surrounding states?

Sure!

Thanks.

Not exactly adjacent to WI but still part of the rust belt... How about Indiana and Ohio since those are part of a lot of comparisons.

Anybody want to take bets on how long it will be before the next of Walker's associates is indicted?

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Ok Mr. McWhinerson.

Coming from Clavin, biggest lefty water carrier in this place, I feel pretty good about that name. BTW, I was scheduled to have some continuing legal ed this week. Instead, I am going to just reread some of your posts and try to pass that off. Same goes for my better half and her need for continuing ed. Gassy, I tried your spicier barbecue sauce recently, I think Nate could probably improve the quality. Same goes for you RM and your environmental protection/preservation issues. Today, I read his diagnosis of Slick Willy's communication problems...

Anyone else in here need Clavin to tell you how to do your job as either a refresher or for mandatory license purposes? He's available. Heck, he'll offer up the help without an invitation.

Keep on making smile up if it makes you feel better about your hypocritical whinging.

Has he not balanced the budget...

He did not balance the budget. He made up revenue numbers that show a balanced budget.

Read my earlier post. He is claiming a billion dollars worth of revenue next year that will probably not happen.

Anybody can say they balanced a budget if you get to make up revenue numbers.
