Walker for President, just you wait.
And just to be clear, suppressing the rights of public employees to collectively bargain wasn't his idea, nor was he the only governor to do it. It was a nationwide coordinated strike, not for the purpose of improving public services, but to weaken the Democratic party's ability to fundraise. Because a single party state is good for democracy.
Wisconsin was just the only state that didn't resign itself to biting the pillow.

If teachers, or firefighters, or whatever want higher wages and better benefits, they should try to convince the public that that is good idea. They should put a proposition on the ballot or try to influence public opinion. Holding the government hostage with backroom lobbying or power plays is the wrong way to do things.
Wow, that is both feasible and efficient!
Is 9/11 so distant a memory that we're now saying "fuck firemen?" Goddamn freeloaders charging into flaming buildings to save lives. It's only heroic when Spiderman does that shit!
