‘Madness Abounds’ as Fake Candidates Confuse Wisconsin Recalls - Bloomberg

Wisconsin Democrats, upset by fiscal sanity and common sense legislation that will benefit all Wisconsin have launched a recall campaign against six Republican legislators who sided with Governor Scott Walker on much needed collective bargaining legislation.

Wisconsin voters will choose among real and fake Democrats this week to challenge six Republican senators in recall elections that may derail the agenda of Governor Scott Walker.

State election law allows open primaries, which means that voters can participate regardless of partisan affiliation. It also allows members of one party to enter another’s primary with “fake candidacies.”

“There’s nothing illegal about it,”

If any recalls succeed, that will encourage more, said, Mike McCabe, executive director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, a nonprofit that advocates openness in government,including one that has been started against Walker, who cannot be ousted until he has been in office a year.

Wisconsin could more or less have a permanent election season continuing through 2012, It almost becomes a foregone conclusion about recalling the governor.

I commend Governor Walker for his common-sense proposal. The results are in, the elimination of Collective Bargaining is the best thing we can do for school kids.

* Taxpayers are better off.
* School kids are better off
* Class sizes are down
* Struggling school districts now have a budget surplus

Teachers' unions did not want this of course. Why? Because they are bold faced liars that's why. There is not a damn thing unions do for kids. Every action by public unions is for public unions and no one else.
