Virgina Gov. Bob McDonnell: Scott Walker's recall win puts Wisconsin in play for November elections

This morning on "Starting Point," Governor Bob McDonnell (R-Va) lists the three reasons Walker won the recall, and explains how he thinks the vote is a sign that Wisconsin could be up for grabs in the November presidential election.
