The DMZ

Bill Scher (CAF, Liberal Oasis, Wait! Don't Move to Canada!) and Matt K. Lewis (The Daily Caller, MattLewis.org)

On The DMZ, Bill and Matt discuss the failed attempt to recall Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. What lessons should Democrats, Republicans, and the labor movement draw? Why didn't President Obama come out more strongly in favor of the Democratic candidate? Speaking of Obama's reelection campaign, why is Bill Clinton suddenly off-message? Should Obama be on Clinton's message? And Matt's big idea: cable news as we know it won't survive.
