If the WI governor loses this battle, style will have played a role IMHO. In the eyes of many, he appears to be dead set on busting the union as much as on getting his fiscal house in order. People that may otherwise support him may side with the unions for this reason alone. Like it or not, in politics style/tactics matter.

We'll see. Of course, if the unions prevail in WI, MI, OH and elsewhere, we'll conclude that style matters not, and the wishes of the voters matter not.
