To be fair, this is the kind of nonsensical rhetoric that has become all too commonplace in electioneering. You say anything, truthful or not, to get some outraged citizen to send money.

What was more startling about the governor's letter was his promise to stand up to "union bullies."

"The stakes are high because they know I am not finished yet," the architect of the infamous anti-union law known as Act 10 admonishes. "And that scares them."

"I have a hunger to do more," he adds, apparently signaling that unions in Wisconsin have a lot to fear if he wins re-election.

What could that be?

No one suspected that the former Milwaukee County executive was going to engineer the dismantling of public unions in the state when he ran for election in 2010. Like a good poker player, he kept his cards close to his vest.

And no one really knows what he has up his sleeve this time around, except that he has a "hunger" to do more.
