Conservative group warns about losing union fight in Wisconsin - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room
In a new e-mail request for donations, a Tea Party group is warning that conservatives are losing ground in the Wisconsin battle over union rights.
A new email soliciting donations from the Tea Party Express and Our Country Deserves sent out Saturday says that recent polls and an ad campaign by pro-labor groups are getting the upper hand and that conservatives backing Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's (R) bill to roll back collective bargaining rights are starting to cede ground.
"Friends, new polls coming out in Wisconsin show that the Obama-Labor Union ad campaign against him is having an impact," the e-mail says. "Governor Walker has started losing ground, even though polls had previously shown him winning the "public relations war."
The ad warns that there will be a national ripple effect if Walker's effort actually does lose in Wisconsin.
"If we lose in Wisconsin then Republican Governors across America will take the lesson that they should give in and capitulate, and all the progress we have seen from the tea party movement will be undone," the e-mail continues.
