Here's some information for you: Brits, and Canadians have a MUCH BETTER picture of what goes on in this world than the majority of 'merikans

Time to re-register so I can vote for the least nuttiest this time around.

While Scott Walker decries "outside influence" on his recall efforts, he runs to obtain help and money from "outside influences" himself. Four donors alone accounted for a million dollars.

Governors under recall in WI are allowed to raise unlimited campaign cash. This is why the fake Walker petition for recall was filed early, by a Walker friend, in order to allow Walker to start raising cash early.

Doesn't seem like much support from small, in-state ("citizen") donors for Walker.

http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?sec...sin&id=8517041

An analysis of Walker's latest campaign finance reports submitted Monday done by the government watchdog group the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign shows that 61 percent of his money came from out of state.

That includes $1 million he got from three Missouri donors and one from Texas over a single week earlier in January.

The Democracy Campaign says roughly half of the $4.5 million Walker raised over the past five weeks came from 33 individual donors.

The funny part is she whines about this, but once the dems have a candidate there will be a TON of $ coming from National Unions to try and fight this. If they win they can use it as an example to other states. If they lose the recall then Other states can follow suit with WI and start to take some power back to the citizens of their state and not with the unions.

Yes, you keep whining about "union money", and "union thugs", while your Governor far exceeds on the "outside money" claims

I seem to remember alot of screaming about ACORN ... but complete silence about ALEC. I find that interesting.
