Gov. canidate Scott Walker called union leader with demands
that he stop bargaining for their contract until after he is installed as governor or else. Walker wants to demand concessions from state unions and can't if they have contracts signed before he "takes" office.
Walker called AFSCME council 40 leader Marty Beil late last week with these demands, but Beil didn't see that it was necessary that his members should know this before the election.

1. Can that be legal?
That sounds kind of shady. Is that something that ought to be looked into?

2. I tried to keep an open mind about this guy but it is quickly becoming obvious....
he is an extreme right wing asshole.

I did not know a ton about him as I try to ignore TV adds by both sides and most of the print I read did not paint him as extreme.

He is looking like a younger smarter version of Tommy Thompson.

God help us.
