Democrat Barrett has momentum in primary race to face Walker

The Tea Party Express is launching $100,000 "Money Bomb" campaign to fund our "Tell the Truth" ad campaign to combat the onslaught of liberal funded attack ads on Gov. Walker!

Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is showing signs of pulling ahead of the Democratic competition in the race to determine who faces Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker the high-stakes RECALL that has national implications.

Not only did Barrett lose to Gov Walker just over a year ago, but his record as mayor of Milwaukee is shameful.

Consider these statistics from Barrett's 8 years as Milwaukee's mayor:

* Under Barrett, Milwaukee has had one of the worst job creation rates of any city in the U.S. with unemployment as high as 27% - about 3 times the national average!

* Milwaukee has one of the worst graduation rates in the U.S. - ranking 9th worst.

* He raised taxes on working class families in 7 out of the last 8 years - with property taxes up a whopping 24%

Compare and contrast that to the conservative governance policies of Gov. Walker.  Gov. Walker has proven that Tea Party principles are the answer to Wisconsin and our nation's economic problems.  In one year, he took a $3.6 billion state budget deficit and balanced the budget, all without raising taxes. It is these policies and Gov. Walker's record, that prove they work, that we have to defend!

With Barrett's abysmal record on jobs and taxes, we find it laughable that he would now attack Gov. Walker on these issues.  He actually accuses Gov. Walker of not focusing on jobs and being politically divisive and representing special interest!  Well, it looks like our opponent that has been running of campaign of distortions and lies has found the perfect front-man.

With the RECALL election right around the corner, the public employee unions have pledged to spent $60 million on their RECALL effort to viciously attack Gov. Walker and distort the truth about the success of his governorship.

We need your help to fight back and fund our $100,000 "Money Bomb" to defend Gov. Walker and get our "Tell the Truth" ad on TV!

We are fighting back with an ad campaign of our own to get the truth out there about the success that Gov. Walker and his reforms have had in Wisconsin.  Our first ad will "call out" the unions and liberal left for their smear campaign and highlight the fiscal success of Gov. Walker.

Who will join these great Patriots that have stepped up and donated $100 or more to the "Tell the Truth" ad campaign?

[SlantRight Editor: Here TPE inserts a long list of donation givers which I am omitting.]

This election is not only a fight for Wisconsin. It's a fight for our conservative values nationwide. A win on June 5th will be a referendum on those trying to stifle the voice of the people and hand power back to the big-government public union bosses that want nothing more than complete control of a state’s budget.

We need your immediate support to stand up to the liberal left and union bosses and to make sure that our Defend Governor Walker Campaign is as successful as last year's Tea Party Express campaigns to defend Republican Senators in their recalls and our campaign to elect Justice Prosser.

Please donate to the ad campaign today!  We can not let then Walker attack ads go unanswered.  Donate $25, $50, $100, $250, $500, $1000, or even more! Click here to contribute now!
