The story by now is familiar: employees of Mercury Marine in Fond du Lac voted down an offer to keep 800 jobs from moving to Stillwater, Oklahoma. Realizing that they had just voted themselves out of jobs, union members began calling for another vote – but IAM headquarters in Chicago immediately shut them down.
A day late and a dollar short, Governor Jim Doyle issued a statement claiming he had done all he could to keep Mercury Marine in Fond du Lac. Doyle outlined demands that Mercury Marine create and retain 2,700 jobs and maintain a significant presence in Fond du Lac for 12 years. In exchange the state would provide unspecified financial incentives.

Shorewood, WI: Growing from a starting core group of dozen people to recently passing the 6000 mark on WWW.RecallDoyle.com, in under five months Win has demonstrated the great anti Doyle sentiment that exists in our state. WIN was started by a group of WI taxpayers such as teachers union workers business owners and just plain people all joined together with the common purpose changing the direction that our Gov. has taken WI in. Specifically, WIN chose as a means of change the removal of our Governor through a recall. The recall process instituted by the progressive movement in WI the early 1900’s to prevent the repeat of rampant special interest money of ever co-opting the Governorship as had happened during that era. We, the people of WIN, recognized that same co-opting of our Governorship even today.

From the left, the Center on Wisconsin Strategy published its annual report in late 2008 with this unhappy summary:
“The national economy has grown more rapidly than Wisconsin’s, leaving the state’s per capita income more than $2,500 behind the national [average].”
From the center, the non-partisan Competitive Wisconsin group reached a similar conclusion in its 2008 benchmark report: “Wisconsin has moved further away from the national average in per capita income, number of new jobs created and number of new private businesses.”

He has tested, serviced and sold products made by Mercury Marine, the boat-engine maker that has called this city home for decades. He worked 24 years for the company and for the last 21 years has operated the Mr. Marine boat dealership.
So, Lloyd took notice when news began to surface this month that Mercury Marine might be looking to consolidate operations, either in Wisconsin or in Stillwater, Okla.

Yesterday, the Senate passed a budget that was approved by a Conference Committee on a 17 to 15 vote with your senator, Dave Hansen voting in favor. A Conference Committee is a panel of legislators formed to iron out differences between the Senate and Assembly when they pass different budgets. The budget that came out of that committee raises taxes over $2 billion, property taxes an additional $1.5 billion, and increases government spending by nearly 7 percent. As well, there are non-fiscal policy provisions that changed in this budget compared to the Senate and Assembly versions, including those dealing with automobile insurance. This change is very important for Northeast Wisconsin drivers who, if it is enacted into law, will be paying higher insurance rates to subsidize high risk drivers in areas like Milwaukee.

A question we need to ask anybody who says; “This is recall Doyle campaign is stupid and a waste of time and money. Wait for the election, it’s only a year + away.” It has to be getting obvious for anybody who has any minimal electrical current traveling through their synopsis that HOW THE HELL CAN WE wait for a year? Look at the financial devastation to our ENTIRE STATE of Wisconsin! Now even Mercury Marine is considering leaving from Fond du Lac, WI ! ! How many more companies have to go before the idiots in the media cease the INSANE blackout of our RECALL of DOYLE? Don’t they care about the people of Wisconsin at all? Don’t they think that the people ought to have the right to know that we can do something about DOYLE NOW?
