Milwaukee – Last night, the citizens of Wisconsin got a first-hand look at the gubernatorial candidates as they came together for their first of two head to head debates. Walker earlier in the day had tweeted that the debate should be “simple”, showing an air of undeserved confidence which quickly turned into outright panic, moments after the debate began.

Walker appeared to be stunned when confronted with tough questions regarding his out of state billionaire donors and travels, as well as being taken to task for releasing his own job numbers that conflict dramatically with those released by the non-partisan Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Tom Barrett made it a point to ask Gov. Scott Walker the questions that the mainstream media has failed to ask throughout the campaign, those being “Why won’t Scott Walker release the emails sent through the secret network that was set up in the Milwaukee County Executive office?” and “Why won’t Scott Walker release the details of his travel across the country?”

In both cases, Walker crawled into his shell like a little boy sticking his fingers in his ears screaming “I can’t hear you, I can’t hear you!” Barrett continued to question Walker’s claims of a budget surplus in Wisconsin just weeks before the election. Barrett says Walker has pulled out the credit card and forced future generations to pick up a 150 million dollar tab, just in interest, with his attempt to score political points just before the election. Walker had no answers and seemed dumbfounded that not everyone bought into his attempted “Boondoggle” of the issues.
