Tells you a lot.
Walker is in trouble I don't deny that. It comes down to Turnout and that's where I think he has still an Advantage. I remember the Marist NBC Poll who had Evers up 11. That was a really, really wonky Poll to put it mildly.
As 2016 showed in America, horrible people can be elected here. Terrible people usually have the huge special-interest money that defends people who seek to do terrible things to us.
If someone promised to allow employers the freedom to use the whip to get workers to work more effectively, then there would be money behind it. Sure, the current array of political leaders brings out my worst fears for America. Why shouldn't they? Cynicism is the only realism in a political order as debased as ours has become.
Remember -- slavery thrived politically because it was profitable, and not because slave-owners and slave-traders were horrible people. Whenever you see something corrupt and cruel operating openly, you can trust that wealthy and powerful people support it.
