These GOP "dirty tricks" are cute, though. They expose a deep and gnawing desperation.
Reading the topics of these threads by the clueless Right, desperation defines the GOP.
The GOP faces a dire future in WI. That simpleton Scott Walker will be recalled. Nationally, Pubs are associated with FAILURE. The annihilation of them in 2012 will be very good for the country.

Seems to be some serious buyer's remorse in Florida and Ohio these days, too.
Yet the conservative Republican is one of the country's least popular governors, with only 29 percent of voters saying in one recent nonpartisan poll that he's doing a good job. It's a woefully low job performance rating for a governor in office less than a year, much less a Republican governor in charge of a swing-voting state that will be critical to President Barack Obama's re-election chances.
The Republican governor's approval number has slipped to just 33 percent while his disapproval figure rose to 56 percent, according to a survey (pdf) from Public Policy Polling, a Democratic polling company. The numbers are a little worse than in March when the poll was last taken. The polling firm said Kasich's disapproval number is the highest in the country among polls taken on 38 governors, tied only by Florida's Rick Scott. The poll of 565 Ohio voters from May 19-22 suggests that Kasich's numbers are slipping because he is losing his Republican base. The poll also indicates buyer's remorse has set in, with voters now saying they preferred to have kept Democrat Ted Strickland, whom Kasich defeated last November by two percentage points.
There's an old proverb, "Those who don't study history are condemned to repeat it." You'd think Republicans in Wisconsin might have learned a lesson or two after having had Joe McCarthy represent their state.

The current crop of teabag Pubs in Wisconsin weren't around in the Mccarthy era. They think no one remembers.

They are Birchers of the John Birch society. The ideology has been around for a long time, but it went out of favor very quickly. They had to rebrand. Teabagger = John Birch society.
Delaying the inevitable. Now Wisconsin voters also get to see that the GOP will try to disrupt the democratic process with planted candidates on top of the terrible agenda they've already pursued. I guess it's just the icing on the cake.
Not only that, it's shows voters how shallow they are.
The were thinking that this gains them more time to campaign but it's actually just made them look worse.
Democrats would never stoop down to pull horrific dirty tricks like this. That is 100% republican moves.
Thanks for the set-up. Really? You are so naive as to believe that one party is good and righteous and the other is just pure evil? There is SO LITTLE DIFFERENCE between the two it's laughable.

Huh? How did it fail, the purpose was to delay the election so the Republicans could campaign more. Without the primaries, last nights election would have been the general election.
LOL. Thinks dems beating republicans who were put in a dem primary to lose on purpose is a fail. Fools.
