Besides the clowns and rejects Walker surrounds himself with, the people of Wisconsin ought to be more concerned about Walker's agenda. If the Wisconsin Democrats cannot beat Scott Walker in 2014, they should be beaten with their own shoes. How can the Wisconsin Democrats not field a candidate to beat a governor attached to a floundering economy and awful record on jobs? How can Wisconsin Democrats not beat a governor who looks hell-bent on selling Wisconsin's public lands to places like China, which will impact farmers (e.g. more competition from outsiders), sportsmen (e.g. less land to use for hunting and fishing), and most of all, everyday Wisconsinites (e.g. more demand for grain and soybeans from China will push up food prices)? How can any Wisconsin Democrat not beat a governor whose economic policies are demonstrably reckless and misguided, and a governor who presides over something as poorly managed as W.E.D.C? How can any Democrat lose to the most incompetent man to hold the gubernatorial office in Wisconsin history? Don’t tell me about the Republicans' simple message or stupid voters or the Koch Brothers. This is the Wisconsin Democrats job to make their case to Wisconsin voters. You've been blessed with an opponent who makes Sarah Palin and Rick Perry look intelligent. Walker's major policies have been one disaster after another. Yet, here we are… Walker’s driving through one disastrous piece of legislation after another, and attempting to privatize things like the University of Wisconsin system, state-owned utilities, and the Wisconsin crime lab. The reason Walker’s in the Wisconsin Gubernatorial Mansion in the first place is because he and his cronies want it more than the Democrats. Campaigning and politicking is dirty business, and the Wisconsin GOP is willing to dive headfirst into the slop to get the prize, while Democrats are only willing to get in up to their knees and then complain that they shouldn't have to wallow around in the mud. It’s not that Walker and his ilk are playing chess. It’s more like Walker’s playing checkers for dummies and Wisconsin Democrats can’t get their testicles unglued from their thighs! Scott Walker is utterly incompetent, but think how much more incompetent you have to be to lose to him.
