Walker is wobbling in the wake of the double-barreled Scott Suder scandal - - first the sweetheart $500,000 annual earmark Suder put into the budget to fund a politically-friendly 'sportsman's group, then the fat state job Walker handed Suder for jobs well done.
So this probably isn't the right time for Walker's legislators to hand out fresh and unjustifiable public land and tax favors to special interests - - in this case, the West Virginia-based mining firm GTAC with a record of donations to Walker & Co. - - already benefiting from insider access to self-serving bill-drafting.
Also little wonder that we haven't heard much about selling off state assets.
Even the ideologues running state government right now know there are tipping points and they are getting close.
