Ed's in Town, Sen. Taylor and Larson frame Walker recall.

Just watching Scott Walker bellow "I relish this," as he arrogantly pounds his chest in a show of conservative leadership, should be enough energize even the unmotivated. First, Walker's premise is a phony one, and it's a deception he's willing foist off onto his supporters. This isn't a union "created" recall and never was. Sure it has a lot to do with collective bargaining, but workers everywhere in Wisconsin were shocked by Walker's mutinous plan, and the forceful uncompromising way legislative Republicans grabbed control. But the "union boss" frame is all the conservative voters in the state need to know. Forget the 2010 job losses.

Even more frightening is the use of the term "lock step," used by RNC chair Reince Priebus, an obvious reference that stuns the senses. Ed Schultz talked to Sen. Lena Taylor and Chris Larson at the Great Dane.
