"Walkergate" the WI recall campaign's first television ad.



Contribute now to keep the recall Scott Walker campaign's first ad on the air!

Prosecutors have brought a total of fifteen felonies and three misdemeanors against six of Scott Walker's closest aides and associates -- with one conviction and two guilty pleas to date.

Much of the illegal activity took place less than ten yards from Scott Walker's desk, but instead of coming clean about what he knew and when he knew it, Walker has been meeting with big shot Chicago attorneys while David Koch "helps him" by flooding Wisconsin with propaganda ads that divert attention away from the growing scandal.

We can't let Scott Walker and the Koch brothers succeed in distracting Wisconsinites from the largest criminal corruption probe in our state's history. Watch the ad, share it with your friends and donate $10 to keep it on the air.

but personally I would be more moved by a list of WALKER's actions than I am by the 1000th invocation of Watergate.

Nixon did not attack the standard of living for thousands of working families so that he could give tax breaks to billionaires. Nixon did not conspire with big money from outside of Wisconsin to sell off public assets to them at cents on the dollar.

Walker is all about money and do the bidding of the richest of the rich. And that has nothing to do with Watergate.

This state is VERY deeply divided. His supporters are as adamant about him staying as we are about getting him out... and it's almost dead down the middle.

We're trying to reach the ones who will be swayed to not vote for him again. This is just the first TV ad.

freeper and tp comments on the Milwaukee newspaper website, since Walkers aids were ordered to stop. I used to hate to read the comments because they were all so caustic and stupid.

TMJ4 & jsonline are cesspools.

jsonline's probably tapers a bit because they require online subscription now. That's all. The caustic, stupid, hateful idiots are still ALL over.
