The most absurd aspect of this campaign is Governor Scott Walker's most consistent attack: That Mary Burke was affiliated with Governor Doyle, who lost 135K jobs during his last term in office-- conveniently overlooking that Burke wasn't working for Doyle during the time of the massive job loss, that Doyle gained over 100,000 jobs before that job loss occurred, or that the massive job loss was part of The Great Recession that hurt all states and occured because President George Bush drove the economy into the ditch!
That would be the same George Bush that Scott Walker served as Wisconsin Campaign Co-Chair and the same George Bush that affectionately referred to Walker as "Scott Dubya" and "my cousin" at joint public appearances.
It's also the same George Bush that Walker praised in 2004 for Wisconsin's steller job growth. Hmmm... interesting how when Wisconsin's job growth is good under Doyle, it was because of Bush, but when the Wisconsin loses jobs, its all Doyle's fault, not Bush.
