MADISON – If public polling was conducted prior to the Civil War, the division might have looked something like this.

According to the latest Marquette Law School poll, 46 percent of Wisconsinites disapprove of their conservative governor, Scott Walker, best known for the loved-and-loathed Act 10 that mostly eliminated collective bargaining for the majority of Wisconsin’s public unions.

But 46 percent of Wisconsinites also disapprove of their liberal-minded president, Barack Obama, best known for the loved-and-loathed Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act – aka Obamacare – a nationwide expansion of health care coverage.

Forty-eight percent approve of Walker. Forty-seven percent approve of Obama. Thirty-four percent approve of Obama and disapprove of Walker. Thirty-six percent disapprove of Obama and approve of Walker.
