Walker's victory: Fair or not, for unions, hard times bring hard lines

Analysis: Gov. Scott Walker’s survival in Wisconsin says little about November, but fits a global pattern in this time of economic peril.

A 'recall Walker' sign sits in the front lawn of the AFL-CIO Union Hall June 4, 2012 in Janesville, Wisconsin. Democrat Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett tried to unseat Republican Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker in a recall election Tuesday. Opponents of Walker forced the election after the governor pushed to change the collective bargaining process for public employees in the state.
