Labor tap-dances on Walker's political grave

His longtime foes are delighted by his political misfortune

No one is happier than organized labor to see Scott Walker drop out of the 2016 contest.

In July, when Walker announced his presidential candidacy, Richard Trumka issued a one-sentence statement: "Scott Walker is a national disgrace." On Monday, after hearing that Walker's candidacy had ended, Trumka said in a written statement: "Scott Walker is still a disgrace, just no longer national."

"As Gov. Scott Walker leaves this race," added American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten, "this is much clear: You can't build a campaign by tearing working people down and attacking their aspirations for a better life. Real change starts with bringing people together to find common ground and boost everyone's American Dream, not to 'divide and conquer' or make a reputation by stripping workers' rights, as Walker so often boasted."

Weingarten's "divide and conquer" reference was to a comment Walker made in Jan. 2011 that was captured by a documentary filmmaker. Asked by a wealthy campaign contributor whether Wisconsin would go right-to-work, Walker answered: "The first step is we’re going to deal with collective bargaining for all public employee unions, because you use divide and conquer.… That opens the door once we do that.” At the time Walker was pressing for legislative passage of a bill--passed later that year--to reduce collective bargaining rights for most public employees in Wisconsin. Earlier this year, Walker signed legislation making Wisconsin a right-to-work state, i.e., freeing public and private workers from any legal requirement to pay dues or their equivalent to a union that bargains collectively in their workplace.

13. Of all days not to watch the news

Governor Walker drops out and a SC justice dies. The local evening news must have been all over it. And I only find out this morning.

Ironically enough, I didn't catch the news because I was watching last Wednesday's debate in part to see Walker's performance.
