2. Thanks I just saw another post on this too... Wasn't what I thought it was going to be about.
However, it is just another piece of the illegal puzzle....

3. I know, hey?
(I had to add the ",hey?" since we're in the WI forum :))

Now... this and the other investigation into his staffers campaigning on the county's dime are out there, BUT it's a "be careful what you wish for" situation.

I was all thinking YAY, we can get rid of Walker even sooner than recall via criminal charges... until a friend harshed my buzz by saying "If Walker ordered said workers to do so.....hello Governor Kleefisch!". o_O

4. This shouldn't really hurt Walker
One of the lawyers at the press conference today explained that when campaigns have millions of dollars coming in, they can't be expected to know if one is illegally funneled from another person. The Assembly Democratic Committee also got one of his illegal contributions, although much less than what Walker received.

5. yes but check this out

This morning, a criminal complaint filed in circuit court alleges that William Gardner, the president and CEO of Wisconsin & Southern Railroad Co., skirted campaign donation laws by soliciting employees to give to Scott Walker’s campaign and then reimbursing them, in what amounts to two felony counts. It has also come out that Walker’s campaign then reimbursed Gardner and seven additional railroad employees to the tune of $43,800, which indicates a criminal probe is imminent of Walker’s campaign.
