Walker Endorses Recalls!

I know the MJS editorial where they interviewed Scott Walker is a bit dated, but I'm just catching up to it now.  What caught my eye is that Walker actually inadvertently supported the recalls:
He [Walker] said if there are going to be recalls, they should be about misconduct in office, not a particular vote. For that reason, he said he sees a stronger basis for recalling Democratic senators who left the state than for recalling Republicans for taking a vote on the bargaining measure.
Considering they took illegal votes, violated open meeting laws to take those illegal votes, broke the law regarding access to the Capitol, broke laws regarding the use of troopers, sent troopers after political opponents, abused the powers of their offices and a myriad of other illegal and unethical activities, I think that can be safely couched under the category of "misconduct in office."

I wonder if Walker will be endorsing his own recall in a few months...
