He's No Ronald Reagan

++That's Scott Walker in Mary Burke's new ad talking about Walker's tax hikes on working people and tax cuts for the rich. 

++Gov. Walker has other problems. The John Doe investigations now center on his role in coordinating illegal campaign contributions. But that's not all. It seems his budget deficit has ballooned since the passage of the Budget Repair Act, which he used to bust unions. Walker has owned up to his failure at job creation. He's been a big dud.

++The Republican Governors' Association is going after Mary Burke as being part of the 1%. That's rich. Walker has probably the closest relationship with the Koch Brothers.

++A WeAskAmerica poll, which is a creation of the Republican-leaning Illinois Manufacturer's Association, has Mary Burke leading Walker 48 to 44.
