I would add-- The NYT article says that the quote was forwarded to staff apparently by Walker's chief of staff. It implied that the original email was from someone else--likely Walker-- since it was a forwarded email although that is not absolutely stated to be the case.
I found the evidence compelling although circumstantial.

The comment was culled from exchanges captured by a secretly installed wireless router used to circumvent Open Records Laws at a time when Mr. Walker, prior to being elected Governor, was Milwaukee County Executive. He made a lot of enemies there as well. Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson
