The dice are loaded

There was a strange stench in Michigan--then I realized Scott Walker was here to raise money for the recall election in Wisconsin next month.  The piece said he received standing ovations--for attempting to destroy the middle class' only hope these days, unions, for denying women equal pay, for sticking the government in a woman's womb, and for leading Wisconsin to the worst job growth in the fifty states last year.

One supposes the good folks at Walker's fundraiser would cheer the villain who puts out his cigar in the starving children's gruel and then kicks the family dog on his way out the door.

It's sad but predictable that there are Michiganders stupid enough to think the worst governor in America is worthy of their cash, but what's worse is this poll showing the recall election in Wisconsin to be a toss up.  We've seen an uptick for Willard Romney since he became the likely republican nominee for President, and perhaps the same will happen for the Democrats in Wisconsin after next week's primary, but still it's somewhat disheartening that this race isn't all but over.  It's amazing what tons of Koch brothers cash can do for a really bad candidate, and despite The Daily Kos cheery outlook for Dems this November (and President Obama here), it's news like this that makes me very wary of what will happen come November.

Willard in the White House--let the Hunger Games begin....
