boss money coming in in the first place. wisconsin voters are going to send a strong message to the tea party extremists that have taken over the republican party that we want you to focus on the middle class and working families. not on lining the pockets of your special interest wealthy friends. we ll talk more about this with ed schultz. host of the ed show on msnbc. i know you ve been on the front lines from the very beginning and i want to start with the president. here s what governor scott walk her to say about his absence in the state of wisconsin. take a look. it is a surprise. i don t know what it says but i think it is interesting. two years ago the president came in for our opponent and he is not here now. on friday he made three stops in the twin cities, to my understanding and three stops in chicago. so it s hard to argue you weren t nearby. you ve spent a ton of time on the ground there with wisconsin voters. did does president s no show really make a d
i was in a number of wisconsin towns on saturday and sunday. i didn t have one person say president obama s name. this is about wisconsinites. this is about getting the vote out. they certainly loved it when bill clinton came to milwaukee and milwaukee county is going to be a very key area when it comes to turnout. it could make the difference in this election. the fact is that the president obviously is the head of the party. the president could have had an impact here. the people understand he is a busy guy. they know they have to take care of business and they ve been on this the last 16 months. despite what reince priebus is saying about outside influence, that s not how this started. this starts with a grassroots effort of people who felt they were being attacked and did not want to take the cuts in public education in the state. that s what started this. it wasn t outside groups and it snow balled from there. and reince priebus should be answering the call about how muc
according to barack obama, more successful than in the recently successful democratic president, bill clinton. when obama said that, the strategy was pretty clear. mr. obama was diminishing the impact of bill clinton and taking a shot at nominating another clinton and trying to appeal to moderates and liberals who wanted their own transformational leader. o praising reagan is part of what is a common trend now. happens a lot presidents controversial become unifying icons in retrospect. the rallying around the retiree becomes selective forgetting. we forget who they were and forget about the things that divided them when they were in office. the nation s 39th president found himself seemingly out of nowhere in this presidential race just a month ago. you would have given the order, governor? even jimmy carter would have given that order. jimmy carter s reputation as a peace nick is undeserved. he presided over a military build-up with the soviet union and he himself serv
