Maybe Barry has them all under some grand form of mind control, and it's really not a Republican war on the middle and lower classes? Although if it works THAT well, I'd think it'd just be easier to directly brainwash the voters that he's wonderful and awesome. Maybe the device only works on a limited number of people, though. ;-)
You know what this reminds me of, is old-time fundraising efforts through Yahoo Groups mailing lists; everybody reads the same e-mail giving them directions for something (in our case it was usually "this year we're donating to XXX charity on behalf of our group") and it looks like a unified effort. Perhaps there's some secret Yahoo Group for Republicans/Teabaggers in high positions, and they get weekly notifications from the Koch brothers on what to do in various states ("Georgia contingent: Try to push through something making miscarriages the fault of the woman, and punishable" - oh, how I wish I was making that one up)?
If the local city council had done what Walker and the Repubs did at my first paper, my editor wold've not only had an apoplectic fit, he would've made sure everybody else in town did, too. (Actually, this did happen a couple of times - and the council was forced to recall the vote each time.)

Re: There really is no limit to Republican depravity/hubris, is there?
