Nothing but lies.

"(Reuters) - Exit polls show the Wisconsin recall election on Tuesday is essentially tied between Republican Governor Scott Walker and Democratic challenger Tom Barrett, CNN said. The CNN data is based on interviews with voters after they cast ballots and not on actual results.
Most polling stations closed at 8 p.m. CT (9 p.m. EDT), although voters in line to were allowed to cast ballots after the official deadline. First results were expected to begin trickling in from around the state soon after the polls closed, although the winner might not be known for hours.
Walker is only the third governor in U.S. history to face a recall from office. He angered Democrats and unions when he championed a law to severely restrict the collective bargaining of unionized state and local government workers. Walker said the changes were necessary to close a large state budget deficit."

It hurts when the gravy train screeches to a halt, and you have to get off and push like everyone else...

Ooooooo......was it the butch looking woman seen on video so often unloading the recall signatures, high fiving people with a look of sheer delight on her face?

I hope it was her!

What was lies exactly? Feel free to act like an adult and prove how Reuters was lying.

All in all, the GOP stinks. This result doesn't change that.

I rest my case.

It takes courage and integrity to come back into a thread like this where you were proven so terribly wrong and admit you were mistaken.

Which is why I don't expect to see some of our left wing loons in here again. Cut and run!

It's good to see they're taking it well.

WI has never been a state that set trends. The result of that recall vote favored that simpleton Walker, and signifies that the limitations of the people in that state prevailed over the STRENGTHS.
