Fixing the mistake your policy created isn't exactly hero material. Now that he's out of the state, the question becomes how long before the decision gets reversed again when the enviro-wackos start crying to him.

Correcting your own mistakes is a sign of an intelligent leader.

Staying the course when you know it’s the wrong course is a sign of an unintelligent leader.

With 14% unemployment in that city he better keep those jobs there, much worse there than in other parts of the country, seems the stimilus has not had a good effect in WI

Nope to the exact figure other than the nation was well under 8% and if we signed the stimilus the countries rate would not go above 8%, it has been 10% and today it is 9.7% well above what Obama promised the nation his 862 billion dollar handout would do. It did after all create or save 59,000 jobs

Yes he started with 10% vs less than 8% and tax cuts spurred the economy, not stimilus and tax increases, next year is going to be shakey with the increases on the horizion, even the middle class will be in this one not just the rich you talk about, I am middle class and can do not like paying more so others can get hand outs. Reagan killed Socalism in Russia, the wall I used to see in Berlin did fall and the people got freedom and he unified Germany with this. Strong National Defense and take less from the citizens the economy will take care of itself vs spending money we do not have at a record clip. Margaret Thatcher, has a great saying, it is now coming true, Socalism has spent all of someone else's money and now the hard cut backs will happen. Time for America to look at this before we follow suit

Reagan started the downward slide of the American middle class. fact: wages rose every year since WWII until he took power & then they flattened & declined. don't try to tell me he helped Middle America. it's BS. Reagan didn't kill Russian socialism. their economy did. http://www.amazon.com/Tear-Down-This-Myth-Distorted/dp/141659762X
