Examples of spending that good ol’ dishonest Buck left out of Walker’s count, from the same website where he got his numbers on Democratic supporters:

Americans for Prosperity was created in 2003 to back conservative issue like small government and lower taxes. The group refuses to disclose how much it spends on outside electioneering activities in Wisconsin and elsewhere, but the Democracy Campaign estimates Americans for Prosperity has doled out $825,000 on negative ads, mailings and other activities in past Wisconsin elections, including an estimated $800,000 during the first round of recall elections involving nine state senators in the summer of 2011…..

…During the last several weeks of 2011, Americans for Prosperity and the Madison-based MacIver Institute, another organization that backs conservative issues, spent a reported $1.2 million on three television ads….

During the first three months of 2012, Americans for Prosperity spent an additional $1.54 million in the Eau Claire/ La Crosse, Madison, Milwaukee, Wausau and Green Bay television markets

That’s over $3 million, from just one of the groups….that Buck decided to leave out of the equation.
