Falk underperformed Doyle by 5-6% statewide, which enabled D-B Van Hollen to become Attorney General. <br /><br /> On the other hand, Barrett was only 1% behind Russ Feingold, who carries a whole lot more oomph with me as a standard-bearer than Jim Doyle.

You answered your question on Act 10, muni budgets have been loosing shared revenue for years, as I said, there isn't alot of flexability in these budgets, the paid sick days issue, is one I'm torn on. As I live in and like Milwaukee, I can see the negitive impact this could have. I also agree on restoring what was stolen, however, I also believe me paying 12% for my healthcare is far less than what my neihbor pays, and my plan is better! Good for me right?(I support universal healthcare) I believe we need to attract the support of those voters. And I can tell you Falk will not get the support of the people of the northwoods when she so clearly sides with the unions (teachers).Let me say again, I agree with your points, however we are so very divided in this state and I believe Falk,like it or not, underscores that divide.

If she wins the primary, she wins my support. I'v met Barrett and he does support labor, and collective bargaining. Barrett didn't get the support of Milw. Fire and Police because Walker promised them open residency! Barrett had no choice but to ask for concessions in health and pensions,when Barrett said Act 10 didn't go far enough he was referring to the exclusion of police and fire in the health and pension contribs. Those two entities are the biggest draw on muni. budgets.

I can understand and agree a 12% contrb. to my healthcare is reasonable. I can make a logical argument on why a 5+% contrb. to my pension does not save the tax payers a dime, but, in order to win in June I will eat that argument, and fight for work place safety, hours, conditions of employment, I will fight for clean air, strong education, voting rights, the end of corp. hand outs, womens rights.etc,etc. Barrett can beat Walker, we must unite around him, labor, middleclass, teachers, city workers alike! We must be pragmatic, Falk, while I to like her,she will not get the support of those who don't understand collective bargaining, she made her bed early, she won't be able to get over that with those voters,,,Barrett can.
