Early predictions?

I think Burke has a good shot, although it is going to be damn close.

You have no idea what you are talking about, do you? He only won by 6% in 2010 and by about the same margin in 2012. Why on earth would his margin double or even almost triple in 2014? Especially when all polls have it tied or a small Walker lead. Walker is such a polarizing figure in the state, there is no way he could win by more than 8% at most!

That being said, I see him winning narrowly by about 3%. Burke has a chance, but I don't see it happening.

It will be close, but I think that Mary Burke will end up winning by less than 5 points.

Thompson was the last Wisconsin governor to win reelection by double digits back in 1998.

Now Gass3268 the Gassy pimp: you need a breath mint.

Walker by single digits. The man has 48% of the vote in his pocket, Burke has about 45% of the vote in her pocket as well. It's a matter of that last 7%, and I expect that most of that will end up in the Walker camp by the end of this.

That's putting it mildly.

Anyway, Walker.

Walker by about 120, as Burke's popularity is driven so far into the ground that a quantum field creates thousands of ballots with her name crossed off, thus reducing her support into negative numbers.

In reality, Walker by about 2.

Governor Husley is truly a terrifying thought!

If Scott Walker won the recall, he'll win this year.

Walker has dodged scandals well... so time is running out for those to break. This is the mirror image of Deal in Georgia, who seems on the brink of a collapse in a state that has been about as R as Wisconsin has been D.

Democrats (and especially the unions) will likely have a strong GOTV program if things are close in September. Until I see that or a scandal taking hold of the election, Walker has the edge.

This is another one of these races, dark horse like GA like KS that can tip to our side.


If we win this race aside from others, it will take a prez candidate out of the mix.

Nah. I don't think that if Walker really wants to run this will dissuade him.
