Not the smartest thing for the State Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald to say in a TV interview even if it is on Fox News.
From Think Progress the money quote is:
If we win this battle, and the money is not there under the auspices of the unions, certainly what you’re going to find is President Obama is going to have a much difficult, much more difficult time getting elected and winning the state of Wisconsin.
Says Fitzgerald.
It's all about the budget...................Right................Far, Far Right.

Update:
Here's what this RepublicSCUM douche of a leader wrote back to Democratic State Senate Leader Mark Miller as to what the purpose of the bill was:
As you know, this legislation is designed to finally balance the state budget, prevent layoffs and create jobs in the real world. There are hundreds of thousands of unemployed or underemployed Wisconsinites, and at least 1,500 more whose jobs are in the balance because of your media stunt. We all deserve better than this. In the meantime, members of your caucus have been meeting with the governor’s staff, talking to the media, trying to find a way back to Madison, and contradicting your message in public. In case you don’t remember, you were present yourself at one of those meetings with the governor’s staff.
The Cap Times called the letter, "one of the crudest letters seen in modern political discourse."
It is so nice to see the mask of the Republican Party fall away.
