Is The Early Recall Filer For Real, Or A GOP Plant/Sympathizer?

Since Wisconsin Republicans openly filed fake Democratic candidacies to twist the Senate recalls earlier this year, it's reasonable to ask if this sole filer from Waukesha County that just gave Gov. Walker 11 extra days to raise unlimited funds is on the level?

If so, well, OK, sorta.

If not...it goes to the top of my brief for recalling Walker, here.

Hmmmm...something smells fishy here, but then again, I am getting used to this smell with the republiCONS/baggers tricks!!!

the ED Show said he's a small-time walker campaign contributor.

He and his friends can collect signatures and then toss them out. That is NOT good.

I figured they'd do this kind of pathetic move. No worries, because as James mentions, it illustrates exactly the type of power-driven scumbaggery that states the case for recalling Walker and any GOP that backed his way of doing things.

And what will an extra 11 days of fundraising do for him, anyway? Let's check the end-of-year donation records, see who donated between Nov, 4-14, and hammer them and their companies for going along with such a scummy move.

Just have all petitioners identify themselves, and we'll be fine.

he said his actions carried out the last wishes of a friend - what's that about?

I puzzled over that comment also--carrying out the last wishes of a friend. Commonsense says the filer (who contributed a small amount to Walker and the *assumption* is that he is a RepublicanTeaParty person) is doing that--carrying out the last wishes of a friend who died.

The whole reason could be a Lie--but that would indeed be a dark, callous lie. But that is speculation also. It is a puzzle.
