"The more than 8,000 emails we got today, the majority are telling us to stay firm, to stay strong, to stand with the taxpayers," Walker said of the emails. "While the protesters have every right to be heard, I'm going to make sure the taxpayers of the state are heard and their voices are not drowned out by those circling the Capitol."-Gov. Walker
A local newspaper sued the Governor's office after he made this claim, today the AP announced the results of 26,000 emails in seven days. The results: 55% of them were supportive of the Governor and 44% were scathing opposition. There are thousands of emails that weren't analyzed over the past few months since the story broke. The Governor's quotes only make him seem desperate to seem popular and on the right side of the issue.
"Thanks for the 10% pay cut, I can't believe that I voted for you. Get bent." Is one of the emails found written by a Department of Corrections employee.
This is only the latest drama amid a bloggers' fake phone call which resulted in a few more embarrassing quotes about the anti union bill and the protests at the height his unpopularity.
There are stories coming out of the woodwork of corruption, pandering, giving bonuses, and in general this Governor is losing his state, he may be able to hold on with the amount of support and money he may be able to convince people to stop protesting. Tawdry politics always leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
And those people are still protesting! Veterans, Police, Firefighters, Students, Elderly, Progressive celebrities like Joe Biden and Al Sharpton. This issue won't go away more drama keeps piling up in the Governors' mansion.
Desperation will not save Governor Walker or any of the Republicans up for recall, the people are infuriated.
