I've been feeling optimistic about the recall and Obama's reelection

So I tuned into NPR's All Things Considered and subjected my optimism to a string of Right-friendly pieces aboit how Union Bosses will be weakened and how Obama absolutely MUST carry Wisconsin if he expects to win.

Sure, there was a brief mention of the vast sums of cash spent on Walker's behalf, but even that piece was a scolding more of Dems for failing to get it together, rather than of Repubs for embracing billionaires' "buy out the vote" campaigns.

Thanks for your typically cerebral and measured reporting, NPR. Can we please have more Mara Liasson on the air? Please?
