The NY Times: Walker Survives Wisconsin Recall. Now the question is if Wisconsin will survive Walker. Wisconsin is where the Republican Party was born as an anti-slavery party. Now their big crusade is to destroy workers’ rights. Boy, have they ever come full circle!
It just goes to show you what $30 million and the right candidate can do. Heck, it shows you what $30 million and the worst candidate imaginable can do. Scott Walker won because of his huge cash advantage. He won because of Citizens United. This election shows that a bad decision by the Supreme Court can lead to bad decisions by voters. At least the voters have the excuse that their bad decision was the result of being deceived and misled. The Supreme Court made their bad decision all on their own.
When you have masters like the Koch's spending 30+ million dollars, they can make a pile of GOP manure smell like roses.
Where you this bitter in 2008 too when Obama raised $745 million and won against McCain who only raised $368 million? Or perhaps you are only angry when a Republican out-raises a Democrat?

LOL like clockwork, the GOP goons will twist absoutly any topic by deflecting with their "bash Obama" trash
Unable to address the topic?
Not only that, but he was a Republican. I'm sure a Democrat governor would have done the same if they definitely saw Wisconsin headed off a cliff and there was only one minute to midnight. But, he wouldn't have gotten recalled. So, put simply, Walker got recalled because he's a Republican.
When was the last time there was a Republican as governor of Wisconsin, home of the Progressive, where it all started.

Really? You are calling me a "GOP goon"? Heck, I am as impartial as one can get in politics where I realize that both parties are two sides of the same coin. I have criticized Republicans much MORE than I have criticized Democrats.
Who is unable to address the topic? You or me? You blamed big money for Walker's victory. Alright, but on the same note, why are you not bitter about big money helping Obama win in 2008? In this election cycle, if Obama out-raises Romney, will your nostrils flare?
Principles, not party. That's what I am about. How about YOU?
I found it very telling that the response from MSNBC and CNN (MSNBC lite) last night was focused on how the MONEY was the cause of Walker's "surviving". Not one of their anchors talked about his successful policies, and they then just quickly switched to the political ramifications for Obama.
Folks, we have a state under the leadership of Walker that just pulled itself out of severe debt and into the black, lowered unemployment from 8.7% to 6.7%, made IMPORTANT union reforms that still don't even ask of the union members what private employees have to pay into their pensions/healthcare, lowered property taxes by .5% etc, etc, and no one is talking about these successful policies---CA and other bankrupt states should take serious note, along with the high functioning morons in the MSM.
I didn't hear Conservatives using the excuse, Obama won because he out raised McCain 3 to 1.
What other excuse do you have that Barrett, LOST? Twice!
The only own getting Pwned is yourself.
This coming from someone claiming Paul will get all the delegates at the GOP convention and win the nomination What are you going to do when Paul loses to Willard? Are you going to claim conspiracy? All the delegates were his? It was aliens? Complete tinfoil meltdown?
