a little OT: Swift Boaters fund Scott Walker in WI [View all]

"Also, $2.4 million of the total has come from out of state — notably a $250,000 donation from Bob Perry, the Texas businessman who financed the Swift Boat Veterans For Truth campaign of 2004, which spread false information about Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry’s war record."

Very nasty stuff going on there. Walker folks have raised $5.1 million to Dems/recall-campaign's ~$1.8 million. On the optimistic side, they've already got 507,000 signatures in support of recall, in just 30 days.
