Walker and GOP big bucks bought Wisconsin recall election

And yet he is still doing a better job than the last republican president!

Romney's tall. Good presidents are always tall.





BTW, The donations to the campaign in WI are a perfect example of the free market. Walker got more money cuz more people donated to him than his opposition.

People and companies voted with money, then the people voted with votes.

And that's it. Democracy4Sale is whining not because she has any problem with money pouring into a Democrat's campaign, she's not happy with the amount of money that Walker raised. Both parties have access to the same funding mechanisms, special interests, PAC's and personal donations. Period. The left is always bitching about "fair share," well, let them get off their asses and get their fair share.

This is a NON-ISSUE.

Corporations and the very wealthy will always trump (no pun intended) the "little people" when it comes to the ability to raise vast sums of money. Yes, Obama does get money from corporations, wealthy individuals, and special interest groups, but it is a smaller percentage of his funds than for the Republicans. I hope the people once again in 2012 show their might by putting Obama over the top with their fundraising and their votes......as a country we need to know that we, the citizens, still have more influence on how our nation of "We The People" is run and we haven't just left it to the corporations to do with as they please.

The money really shouldn't matter. The rich are 1% of of the voters and about 1/2 of those are liberal anyway like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet. 99% of people in the US aren't rich and should be voting for Obama, right?

And Obama raised much more than McCain, so the very wealthy must not matter that much.

I don't think they liked McCain any better than Obama. Did we have the SuperPACs for that election? I can't remember

Really? I am going to need to see your work.
Unemployment?
Percentage of Americans reliant on goverment aid?
58% of Americans working now compared to 62% under "W".

Oh wait, spin those numbers. More guys like the Dude can exist because they don't need to get a job because there aren't any.
