Alberta Darling's Politifact History: Not So Truthy

I've seen Wisconsin State Sen. Alberta Darling, (R-River Hills), on local TV appearing a little dumbfounded by the recall heading her way.  She has been shilling so blatantly for Scott Walker - - and caught on video boosting him and his union-busting - - since his election - - to which she directed $6.250, by the way - - that she hasn't even been able to get her facts straight.

So not so truthy, which. for someone of her experience, is not so good.
Darling has been in the legislature since 1990, and currently co-chairs of the Joint Committee on Finance - - which will handle Walker's budget and had quickly recommended his phony, union-busting "budget repair"/not-budget repair bill - -  all of which makes her flubs and fibs and political opaqueness a little more troubling.

When it comes to the state deficit, Wisconsin is "proportionally in as much trouble as the State of California."

I'm wondering why her political website hasn't yet been scrubbed.
