A new Public Policy Polling survey, a firm employed by the Service Employees International Union, purports to show that the recall race in Wisconsin has tightened, with Gov. Scott Walker leading Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett 50 percent to 47 percent. But the desperate tactics Democrats and their leftist allies are employing in the final days of the campaign do not suggest any real confidence going into Tuesday.

Officially, the Democrats biggest line of attack on Walker is an accusation that he is somehow a target of investigation in an on going political corruption case. Democrats have no evidence that Walker did anything wrong, yet they are still asking him to, “provides letters of exoneration from the state and federal prosecutors who have overseen this investigation.” Walker has ignored this absurd and unprecedented request.
