1. Petition can't be filed until January, then ~550k signatures w/in 60-days

2. Thanks for the information. Wisconsin could be the start of a national movement This morning

Bloomberg, reported today with video what is happening in Wisconsin.

In my experience, Bloomberg usually leads the MSM in stories that become national news

3. Might as well keep that on the clipboard...

too bad there isn't a way to make a FAQ board and pin it to the Wisconsin forum in Places

5. Walker won in 2010 with a 52% to 47% margin.

It's very difficult to recall governors. Generally, those recalls are unsuccessful. I'm not sure what percentage of Walker voters were union members. If the number is too low, it will be a very difficult recall, I think. Worth doing, but very difficult.

6. Workers in capitalism fought, suffered and died for 200 years to win collective bargaining rights.

A single election result shouldn't get to overturn that struggle for justice.

Walker won his election before he announced that he is a would-be tyrant who wants to end workers rights and call out the military to help. That was not among his promises. If ever there were grounds for a recall... !

7. I agree 100%. It should be impossible. I'm sure a recall campaign

will be launched. I sincerely hope it's successful.
