The Wisconsin Bellwether

If Scott Walker, the Republican champion of fiscal sanity who is currently Governor, is defeated in tonight's Wisconsin election, it should hearten Barack Hussein Obama and his campaign team immeasurably (though it would by no means prove Obama is a lock for reelection because Wisconsin has always been among the most "progressive" American states). Conversely, if Walker survives the well-funded Democrat and union effort to remove him from office using the recall process, the Romney campaign should have increased optimism that they will triumph nationally in November. Once again, Walker holding the governorship in the Wisconsin election will not mean a certain victory for Mitt Romney in the general election but it will certainly provide a tailwind to propel GOP forces and add to their momentum.
