An excellent recap of why the Wisconsin recall is a major disaster for Obama.
If you pause and listen carefully, you might be able to hear the
despair coming from Jim Messina, President Obama’s 2012 campaign
manager, and David Axelrod, Obama’s top strategist and communications
director, as the meaning of Wisconsin’s recall election becomes clear.
In the final hours before Governor Scott Walker’s victory, with the
writing on the wall, President Obama and his campaign could only muster a
tweet
and a last-minute video for challenger Tom Barrett. But do not let that
tepid support fool you: Democrats and their union allies spent an
astronomical amount on a judicial election, four state legislative
recalls and the recall of Governor Walker, only to lose.
