Gov. Scott Walker discusses his jobs plan during a meeting with the Press-Gazette Media editorial board. (Wednesday, Oct. 15, 2014) Jim Matthews


Adam Rodewald, Press-Gazette Media 5:32 p.m. CDT October 15, 2014



..............."A good example of a mistake I made early on is I was so eager to fix things, seeing the size of the problems we had — I was so eager to fix things I rushed out without talking about them," Walker said.

The governor, who has survived a recall election, said he learned from that experience.

He said he believes explaining the law, which prohibited most public sector unions from collective bargaining for anything but base wages, ahead of time would have prevented much of the immediate push back. He also made clear he wouldn't have backed down.

"You need to listen and you need to communicate. In the end, the buck stops there, and you have got to call the shots," he said......

"You have got to get things done."

Should have been.......... "A good example of information I failed to suppress, I didn't pay attention to because I was so eager to put the fix in, seeing the size of the profits my donors were demanding. I was so eager to put the fix in I rushed out without thinking." Walker drunkenly blurted out

Now that he explains it to us, I feel kind of guilty for taking part in the protests.
