I want to hear what Rachel Maddow's neck mole has to say before I pass judgment.

But she apparently didn't. Even PolitiFact said that when discussing what was being talked about when confronted by the Maddow show. LOL - even Scott Walker has been using that number.

Fact check on your fact check. Twitter can sometimes be wrong!

http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/...ve-budget-sur/

response from the Milwaukee Sentinel Journal back to Maddow after asking for a retraction

Not on Twitter, thanks. I posted the original Wisconsin budget document, (the one where Walker gains and uses the same number) which is apparently too complex for folks to read themselves. I also posted the detailed Politifact answer to Maddow saying essentially, "well, it wasn't the number you used, it was the context"
