Facebook Fans: Anti- and Pro-Scott Walker Pages

Wisconsin Facebook users are running rampant with opinions about Gov. Scott Walker's proposed budget repair bill that eliminates collective bargaining rights for public union employees.

The proposal is part the governor's plan to fix a projected $3.6 billion budget deficit in state spending for the next two years.

Anti-Walker fan pages appear to out number pro-Walker pages, but there are plenty on both sides of the controversial issue. The dueling on-line movements will meet in the real world Saturday when Tea Party organizers slot a rally at the State Capitol up against the torrent of pro-labor protesters that have clogged Wisconsin's capitol city this week.

Here's a breakdown of some of the more popular pages:
