Wisconsin: Federal Reserve bets on Scott Walker (to fail)


http://uppitywis.org/blogarticle/federal-reserve-predicts-walkers-wisconsin-will-continue-fail


Federal Reserve predicts that Walker's Wisconsin will continue to fail



On February 2, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia released the leading indexes for the 50 states for December 2011. "The leading indexes are the six-month forcast of the state coincident indexes, which reflect current economic activity in each state," According the Federal Reserve, the leading index for each state predicts the six-month growth rate for the state's coincident index. Also according to the Federal Reserve, forty-four state coincident indexes are projected to grow over the next six months.

ONLY SIX STATES ARE PROJECTED TO DECREASE OVER THE NEXT SIX MONTHS.
SCOTT WALKER'S WISCONSIN IS ONE OF THE SIX FAILING STATES!

If this is what Scott Walker's Republicans call success, what do they consider as failure?

Are they states that were hijacked by teabaggers in recent elections?
