Was -- shrink our race is now down the wire would just days -- sparks -- -- Wisconsin doing to be a battleground but not just from governor Scott Walker and his opponent mayor Tom Barrett.
The national political parties are also duking it out Wisconsin.
DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz call -- the Democrats recall effort say.
Dry run for November's presidential race -- in -- -- fund raiser with mayor Barack's so what does he RNC if to say RNC chair right.
He's seen since then Greta how or if I'm I suppose you don't agree -- width of the DNC chair but -- -- agree that this this.
June 5 -- is a -- test run for November.
Yeah I don't.
I mean we're we're going to be in great shape in November I think this is for us.
A matter of protecting people of their word did run for office and govern like -- campaign goes -- me know what what -- we.
How is it did walker has become the center of the political universe and I always think it's because.
People in this country are starving for a real authentic people to serve this country.
And beat people of their word and govern like -- campaign and the reason why.
We have to win this election in Wisconsin.
Is that the very idea of courage.
Is on the ballot in Wisconsin the idea that people can make tough decisions and tough choices in this country.
They can follow up with what they promised they would do wants to get elected.
Is what's on the ballot.
So to me and to people that are passionate about this race that's what this is about to -- it Wisconsin and it's about America.
I but if let's say hypothetically the Governor Walker wins by.
Six point 21 -- my -- -- six points last time for governor did make him I mean isn't that a message and in that I think they'd says as a Republican Hartnett shared currency that you would be.
He would feel that was a really strong message for -- house is gonna go.
Come November because last time Wisconsin went for president -- but then go for a ride Senator McCain well the reason why push back on -- -- test case scenario that Debbie Wasserman Schultz throughout there's I don't agree this is not just a test case.
This is about the future and I pretty -- about what should tell you think it does and that you know.
The conservatives and Republicans together in Wisconsin.
Have done very well over the last few years we won the Supreme Court racist before walker won in 2010.
Walker one Johnson one we swept Wisconsin came back and won a Supreme Court race again for the conservative.
Democrats on their face on the senate recall.
In June and here we go again I think that the -- walker obviously is going to win.
Next week but I think the Democrats have been totally foolish.
About this primary many women with a candidate that has done one thing really well he's lost a lot of state -- elections is gonna lose again.
We have to your point about Wisconsin and being in the processors.
There -- -- stay in the country that the Republican National Committee.
And Republicans and Wisconsin know more about.
Every single -- in that state think about it -- the intense.
After it you've had on the ground we know where the votes on what to turn out.
Election -- -- even dash to the numbers there aren't a prediction rather substantial -- -- -- them much really incredible turnout down even by the absentee votes in the early voted so that's going to be.
You know that there's going to be a lot of people very well so there's a reason why Obama and the DNC and the Democrats aren't happy about this race.
Because they -- -- even -- he's not there campaign for -- -- with Tom -- -- well the Democrats have set up the World Series event for us next week.
Except they're gonna you know they're totally flopping on this thing.
They're not supporting Tom Barrett and -- not supporting his number one they don't they're not they don't -- flush money down a toilet but they also know what the ramifications are.
Now you've got yet another race -- Republicans and conservatives have -- now the Democrats have to come back just remember when the Democrats lose next week.
They're not gonna just enter into this election for November they're gonna have a little circular firing squad and a blame game going on for a few weeks.
Then they're gonna have to try to come back and win this thing in November not say Wisconsin goes red for Mitt Romney.
It's over it's lights out for Barack Obama -- -- -- see you next week I agreed to the show -- excellent example if there then I'll be there in Wisconsin this weekend campaigning.
And through the weekend and I look forward to seeing you next Tuesday -- that nice to have a thank.
