As President Obama lands in Milwalkee today, he will be greeted by Republican Governor Scott Walker on the tarmac.

Walker was also expected to join Obama on his trip to a Master Lock factory but he may have to cancel after being sick all day yesterday, according to the Milwalkee Journal Sentinal.

Governor Walker faces a recall election in Wisconsin this year, after battling with liberal Democrats and unions over collective bargining rights for government employees.

In 2008, Obama carried Wisconsin by 14 points.
