I thought the rotten smell along the St.Croix River in the morning was dead fish...but it's just the stench of your rotten corruption as you drive OUT of Wisconsin to work....


Wisconsin where the cultural center is Wisconsin Dells...and cow pastures...

Whew...no bitterness there.

This is great news! Does anyone know how the senate race went? Though as another poster mentioned it really doesn't matter.

On another note, let's not get too cocky. This will not end as a 60-40 split once Dane County is all in, plus the more urban parts of Milwaukee county.

I kind of don't see WI as being in play in November, though it may be. I don't think so though. Does anyone else find it odd the number of people who must then be voting for Walker now and Obama in November??

A devastating blow...for once you are right.

Again, you are right. Today was a great, great day for WI AND the country.

The people of WI have spoken.....and it's not Walker the pink slip is going to.

Walker is a Koch owned radical right extremist that's going to be thrown out on his rear where he belongs.
Too bad they couldn't keep that enthusiasm going, huh?

Who's laughing tonight?

The primaries were a bad sign for the anti-Walker crowd....which was proven tonight.

Too bad they couldn't continue with the effort when it counted.

I've told you before...when conservatives come out to vote, they can't be beat.

Do you see now how wrong you have been all along?

Walker got around 40% of union households.

He put money the unions were stealing back in their pockets.

Wisconsin will become a right to work state under Walker and the wages in that state will become dismal. In America, too many are working for slave wages to enrich a few.

The thing is, there was no momentum. I'd be far more willing to sign a petition saying put someone on the ballot, but voting them out of office, a completely different story.

Default Ed Schultz: Absolute idiot

Calls the Walker landslide "very close". And says "No question that this is NOT damaging to labor unions."

What an idiot. This Democratic Party cheer leader can hardly hold back his tears.
