The freedom fighters likely don't want to take any chances of the GOP being up to even more dirty tricks,..

It will be interesting to see the hysteria from the left for a change. Getting the popcorn ready.

I took a nap this afternoon so I could be awake to relish this. Ditto DH - he has MSNBC on in his man cave. I hear him laughing.

Congratulations to Governor Walker!

Yes...isn't it hysterical watching the losing side come up with all the excuses for the most humiliating defeat (in a long, long line of WI defeats).....evah!

The meme/narrative from the Left/media is all that dirty money bought the election for Walker.

I am genuinely concerned about her and hope she did not hurt herself over this.

The most far-reaching result of this election, aside from the public-sector unions being told what the people in Wisconsin thnk of them, is that other governors in other states who want to similarly put the unions in their place will now know that they CAN do it; and that all the massive media coverage plastering quick and painful defeats for the conservatives all over the airwaves, is just so much hot air they won't need to worry about.

Basically, now we have seen that the public-sector unions and their friends in the media, are a minority who is on the opposite side from the normal citizens of the state, even if the media tries to tell us otherwise.
