Vos Wrong on Recall Changes
As one might expect, some Leggies are unhappy with the Wisconsin Constitution.
Right now there doesn't need to be a reason, but Vos thinks it should only happen if a politician has been indicted, charged with a felony, convicted of a misdemeanor or violated the code of ethics."Recalls are supposed to be used in rare circumstances, when I believe someone broke the law or committed a crime in office," said Vos.

Recall: any time, any reason.
I agree. While I think the left over reached in their anger, and will foolishly continue with their attempt to recall Walker, Vos is wrong. I was pondering his idea before I read this, but came to the conclusion that it'd be wrong. Of course, my opinion may change if the recalls get abused. The democrats should be very careful. they've opened a Pandora's box here.
