Fix, don't destroy, public worker unions

David Gergen, CNN Senior Analyst,
Michael Zuckerman, Special to CNN

Updated 3:50 PM EDT,
Mon June 4, 2012

A worker shows her support for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker at one of his campaign stops last week in Sussex, Wisconsin.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Writers: When Wisconsin governor limited public worker unions rights, it caused firestorm

But Wisconsin mood has changed, they say, with more backing Gov. Scott Walker

A Walker win, they write, would reveal the extent of the backlash against these unions

Writers: Curbing abuses is fine, but we must not destroy all that's good about unions
