Also, the WI unemployment rate is lower than the national average.
A big problem for Walker is that the jobs being created by WI are mostly not in manufacturing (good middle class jobs).
If Walker fails to make good on his jobs promise, it will be a major factor in his being a one-term Governor.

so the state, which is one of the homes to the Union movement, had the lowest unemployment rate?
sounds like a good reason to push for more union busting.. but, i suppose, the police in the state have finally figured out what happens when they're the last union left
