Walker campaign member admits "all of us who worked for his campaign knew".
Edited on Tue Mar-15-11 03:03 PM by roxiejules
Did Gov. Scott Walker's campaign insiders know about his plans to gut collective bargaining under the pretense of budget crisis?

It appears his campaign workers were given a clear message about his plans, unlike the public. This is what I accidentally discovered while reading comments at the Milwaukie Journal online about the recent protest.


Copy of the postings between a pro Walker commenter (ssgpat1642) and a liberal (Driver Ed) on March 13th:


Driver Ed - Mar 13, 2011 8:24 PM
Pat - you'll have to try harder ... I didn't vote for Doyle either. It's Walker I have a problem with. Here's my latest thoughts... It's not about the budget. Governor Pinocchio lied. The tax cuts - next diversion. Lower salaries will now = lower tax revenue. What about the jobs? Where are the 250K jobs? That's the issue. What about the business tax breaks? That caused this crap Your governor is no wizard. Most 3 year olds could take a monopoly in government and win with it. Not this one though. He wanted wayyy too much wayy too soon. Greedyyyy . Soon his baaa will pay the price ...297 days and counting.

drvers ed if the economy turns around the Gov will be a hero time will tell

ssgpat1642 - Mar 13, 2011 8:36 PM
drivers ed I knew what Scott was going to do as all of us that worked for his campaign but we will see how it all works out that is what makes this a great country and the best state in the union the ability to vote and change your representatives of government

Driver Ed - Mar 13, 2011 8:38 PM
So Pat - if you knew what he was going to do,
why did you alienate the rest of us and not tell us he was going after workers rights? Did you think it was wise to destruct Wisconsin in a month?

ssgpat1642 - Mar 13, 2011 8:42 PM
all the while he was county exec and you didn't see what he wanted to do

Driver Ed - Mar 13, 2011 8:47 PM
Pat - Can't go yet - y sparked a fire. No. Had I known...... Or had any of us known - it would have made all the difference and we wouldn't be blogging about this guy at all - and you know it. That vote was an anti-Obama vote brought to you by too many Wisconsinites who didn't have a clue and thought they were sending a message to the national electorate for daring to vote Black man into the nations highest office. Acrualy this massive blunder by Walker may prove to energize Obama even better for his next run.


The exchange appears to end at this point as "pat" says goodnight and signs off.

I also found the following comment from the same pro Walker commenter on March 5:

ssgpat1642 - Mar 05, 2011 4:43 PM
