In interviews across the state, Wisconsinites expressed emotions ranging from dread to panic as they grappled with the realization that Walker would soon be back behind his desk performing his duties. Earlier this spring, when he was riding high in the polls, a lot of my friends and I were thinking, This is the break weve been looking for, said Carol Foyler of Green Bay. We definitely had our hopes up. Tracy Klugian of Milwaukee agreed. I dont know a person in Wisconsin who wasnt pumped about the idea of Scott Walker going to Washington, he said.

In the hours after the governors stunning announcement, on Monday, Wisconsinites formed support groups to help each other navigate the reality of Walker turning his full attention to their state. At a meeting of one of the groups on Tuesday evening, Kenosha resident Harland Dorrinson expressed confidence that his fellow Wisconsinites would be able to contend with their new situation. People in Wisconsin are stronger than you can imagine, he said. Weve been through blizzards. Weve been through tornadoes. Well get though this somehow. Still, its tough, he said, his voice breaking.
