WI Recall Down to the Wire from Politico

The recall race in Wisconsin between Governor Scott Walker and Milwaukee mayor Tome Barrett is a tight as a tick and a hound dog. Voters are unhappy with Walker's attempts to break labor unions and with his economic policies which led Wisconsin to lose jobs last month while the national economy picked up steam.

Barrett isn't the issue in the campaign. The outcome will be a referendum on Walker's stewardship of an economy that is faltering. When Walker killed collective bargaining he promised economic progress and all Wisconsin got was economic decline.
