Jauch could face Recall from one issue Republican Voters who hate costly recalls over one issue.

Republicans are afraid to walk the walk when it comes to recalling legislators over just one single vote. They blather on about recall reform, but it just big talk.

Instead, they’re willing to trash tourism and our incredible Wisconsin landscape due to the demands of a mining company that can’t seem to work within the rules set by the DNR and EPA.

Boo hoo, recalls are so unfair, except when they can't turn our state into a stinkin' trailer park:
Ashland Current: The group that says it is considering launching a recall of Democratic State Senator Bob Jauch of Poplar says it will make an announcement next week. Jauch opponent Shirl LaBarre of Hayward says the stalled bill that would speed up the permitting process of iron ore mining for the Penokee Range has generated more interest in recalling Jauch. “People are very frustrated and upset and angry over it. I’ve had tons of calls, tons of emails, tons of Facebooks, people saying ‘let’s go.’” 
So instead of a local drive to launch a recall by actual residents in the area, LaBarre’s tea party instincts drove her to seek the help of a Milwaukee group that specializes in recall drives:
LaBarre, with the backing of the Milwaukee-based group Citizens for Responsible Government, is heading an effort that will decide whether or not to collect signatures to recall Jauch. She says it doesn’t matter that Jauch is co-sponsoring an alternative mining bill with Republican State Senator Dale Schultz. “It’s not at all. His mining bill is exactly what we’ve said all along. No mining.”

LaBarre says if Jauch votes for the Republican mining bill, they won’t launch the recall. Jauch says that won’t happen. So the question is, do Republicans really hate costly recalls over every single vote a legislator takes? 
 God they’re hypocrites.
