They cannot run on a record of "25 straight quarters of subpar job growth," so instead it's using Foxconn and other WEDC-style handouts as a shiny object claiming "But our boom is just around the corner! Trust us this time!"<br /><br /> I also expect more juiced up jobs reports from Walker's Department of Workforce Development, which has consistent overstated job growth for the last 2-3 years, especially in manufacturing.
