Walker Blames Political Attacks For Slumping Approval Rating in WI

Late in August, a poll done by Marquette University showed that Scott Walker's approval rating in Wisconsin had dropped to 39 percent.



What Walker failed to consider - and the media allowed him to avoid - is that the drop in his approval rating has nothing to do with either his presidential campaign or political attacks.

It could be that he is just doing such a shitty job that people are starting to wake up to just how bad things have gotten in Wisconsin.

Wisconsin is in worse shape since Walker and his cronies took over. There is no disputing that.

is interesting.

MN - Liberal Democrat Mark Dayton is governor and he had a completely Dem legislature to work with for four years. We are in great shape.

WI - going rapidly to hell in a handcart as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Kochtopus.

There's a lesson to be learned here, I think.

This was the reason I wanted him to run: national public humiliation. Stick with it, Scooter.
