Escalation
Governor Scott Walker is close to the finish line and victory -- but the battle is not over.
Despite a solid vote of 51-17 in the Wisconsin state assembly to defeat the bloated public employee unions, the state Senate can't vote because Democrats remain in hiding.
And Governor Walker has warned of over 12,000 layoffs of state workers if the the Senate does not pass his bill.
Clearly this week is showdown week!
But Governor Walker is under fierce attack, and the big unions and President Obama's leftwing allies are pouring millions - I mean millions! - into Wisconsin to force Governor Walker and the state Senate to cave.
There are some indications these leftwing efforts are paying off.
Here's what the New York Times reported Saturday: "Some Republican leaders in other states have moderated their talk against state employee unions in recent days."
This is why the League of American Voters efforts are so critical.
This is a battle of public opinion that will affect the final vote in the Wisconsin Senate.
The League is already at the forefront in Wisconsin exposing the lies of the public employee unions.
The League of American Voters is the lead group defending and supporting Gov. Scott Walker.
So, far the League has unleashed a barrage of radio ads across the state of Wisconsin demanding that legislators stand with Governor Walker -- and reminding the public that taxpayers can't afford the big salaries and lavish pension benefits of public employees.
And just this weekend, the League is making a telephone call to hundreds of thousands of Wisconsin citizens revealing that Governor Walker's plan will dramatically improve education standards, by allowing incompetent teachers to be fired, giving good teachers merit pay and allowing parents the right to school choice.
For the big unions this is Armageddon!
If they lose in once liberal Wisconsin, they can be defeated in almost every state in the union. And they know this!
This is why I am urging you to support the League's Wisconsin and national efforts to expose the big unions and defend Governor Walker.
As you know, the League was one of the leading groups that fought Obamacare. It has been credited with defeating Obama's "public option" - which, if passed, would have destroyed private health care completely.
And last year the League led the fight to renew the Bush Tax Cuts with a national TV campaign featuring former Senator Fred Thompson.
The League won that battle too.
Now, they are fighting this critical battle to restore fiscal sanity to this nation and to defend a true American hero, Governor Scott Walker.
Please stand with Governor Walker and us today -- Go Here Now
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Dick Morris
