Wisconsin governor Scott Walker is losing the battle of the headlines in his quest to reduce his state's budget gap by breaking the teachers union.
The Associated Press says that Democrats are not deterred by a recall threat or withholding of its paychecks;
The National Journal calls the plan "Bait and Switch", saying Walker's budget plans don't fix what he says is the crisis;
Ohio,
Indiana,
Pennsylvania and
Florida will not be following in Walker's union-busting footsteps; and weekend protests by unions
are planned in every state capitol.
And now, new polling conducted for the AFL-CIO and
reported on The Huffington Post shows Wisconsin voters siding with the state workers, unions and protestors by large majorities and expressing net disapproval of Governor Scott Walker.
Informal polling done by the Daily Dude using Google's auto-fill feature shows that the union-busting GOP governor is losing the battle on the internet as well:
