Governor Walker has admitted he doesn't have the people to challenge the over 1 million Recall signatures an alliance of groups have gathered to force a Recall election.
His team has only managed to go through some 400 thousand names claiming ten percent are either fraudulent or missing some important detail.
So the Recall is on sometime this late spring or early summer. The governor and several other Republicans will be on the stump including the state's Lieutenant Governor and several Senators.
The Governor says the Recall is a tragic 'distraction' that will cost about $9 million tax dollars, not including the many more tens of millions of dollars that will flow from the Koch Brother's and their Americans For Prosperity tax-free charitable group.
Wisconsin Democrats are asking the IRS to review the tax-exempt status of Americans For Prosperity, which by law is not permitted to campaign for a politician or party. Recently, billionaire David Koch told a newspaper in Palm Beach, Florida that Americans For Prosperity would be spending 'more money' to support Governor Walker's fight against the Recall.
