Forgot!
Lots of folks are asking about the Racine Journal Times "poll" on Walker's popularity. It appears to be propaganda in the making and not a sincere desire to poll people on Walker, who dropped like a rock in all the national polls. Respond or not--but don't expect the truth.

Yes it is, just voted three times and I'm sure many others could do the same thing.

A suggestion for fightingbob.com would be to start collecting catchphrases that can be used to counter Walker, the Kochs, the Fitzgerald triumvirate, the Tea Party, conservatives everywhere.

We need ideas and phrases that will stick well enough to replace those used by Walker. His "the state is broke" is a mantra I heard almost immediately following the first gathering at the capitol.

Together we can fight words with words. The pen is still mightier than the sword.

Curious that I am. I voted 6 times before I started looking at the numbers.

Vote 7
Strongly approve 93,628
Approve 10,865
Disapprove 4,344
Strongly disapprove 109,690

Vote 8
93,648
10,867
4,345
109,740

Vote 9
93,653
10,868
4,346
109,755

Fuzzy math? I voted these three times within 30 seconds. Another garbage poll. Racine is best known for great Kringles. Maybe that's what they should stick with.

If the real motive behind this poll is to stack the vote for the pro-Walker crowd, it's backfiring. I just checked their website, and the vote is 51.3% strongly dissapproving of Walker, and only 41.8% strongly approving him.
