Well, what do you know, Walker's own recall fund Raising gets a head start.

Why aren't Republicans voters angry over their party's dirty tricks? Are they that unsure of themselves, and their agenda, that they have to cheat? I guess.

Here's Ed Schultz and John Nichols with the latest on the early recall filing:



You know something isn't quite right when all attempts to contact the guy who started the Walker recall petition early, isn't available. Hmm. But it does start the Walker money machine early. Sneaky...

CapTimes: The recall effort against Republican Gov. Scott Walker has unexpectedly begun. But instead of being filed by Democrats and grassroots organizations who have vocalized their intentions to recall Walker for months, the petition was filed by David Brandt of Muskego.

Brandt filed the petition with the state Government Accountability Board Friday afternoon under the committee name "Close Friends to Recall Walker." He also checked a box that indicates he will not be raising much money toward the effort.

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin, which had announced its intention last month to launch the recall Nov. 15, quickly branded the move a "dirty Republican ploy" but it's not clear what Brandt's loyalties are. "This is the Republican ploy we have been predicting would happen," says Graeme Zielinski, a spokesman with the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. "The only reason this was filed was to open the dirty rain shower of unlimited corporate cash."

Attempts to reach Brandt were not immediately successful.

The window for unlimited contributions opens once a committee registers with the GAB, which Brandt did Friday, indicating they plan to begin collecting signatures to recall an incumbent.
