Wisconsin Democrats, in selecting who will challenge Republican Gov. Scott Walker in the state's upcoming recall election, are engaging in a tough fight of their own -- pitting two top Democrats against each other, with unions' influence looming large.
The states largest public employee union, AFSCME, directed members to a video blog about recall candidate Tom Barrett, the Milwaukee mayor. The video deceptively paints the picture that Barrett is in synch with Walker, the arch enemy of Wisconsins left for his legislation limiting public unions' power.
Barrett is shown shaking hands with Walker. The photo was taken when the two opponents debated, and the video creates the impression that Barrett gave Walker the strategy to force union-crippling legislation through without the return of 14 senators who had fled to Illinois.
This is not about party. Walker's actions are not anathema because he is a Republican, but because of what those actions are.

And his actions essentially saved the state. They saved teachers jobs. They saved money. They reduced the power of corrupt unions.

That's your opinion. We will see how the people of Wisconsin feel about it in future elections. In any case, I was addressing the party membership of the mayor in question, which is irrelevant.

Yeah. I mean the audacity of the man to save the state. He should have just continued spending without restraint so the corrupt in Wisconsin can profit off the labor of others like the Democrats do. How dare he do what he campaigned on doing and what the people elected him to do?! Doesnt he realize they have a nice rigged system in place specifically to rob the people?

The first is certainly my opinion. The saving of teacher jobs and money for the state are facts.

Why are democrats afraid of the people?
It is a fair question as the need to form unions is for protection.

That still has no relevance to the party of the mayor you cited in your OP.

Employers are hot "the people."
Next question.
Of course there is. The Dems and the unions are the ones who forced the recall

They are in the context of government where the people are the employers.
If the folks in WI don't like what Walker done then he will get the boot.

Perhaps you need to consider the concept of a "middleman." Or of a "bureaucrat."
