Wasserman Schultz: Wisconsin recall a ‘dry run’ for November
The Daily Caller ^ | May 27, 2012 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 05/28/2012 12:05:29 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

On Sunday’s “State of the Union” on CNN, Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz addressed her party’s prospects of reclaiming the Wisconsin governor’s mansion, calling the battle to recall Gov. Scott Walker a “dry run” for the November election.

Current polls show Walker with a commanding lead over his opponent, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. But that’s not deterring Wasserman Schultz from promoting her party’s prospects in the contest.

“I think that he [Barrett] has a real opportunity to win,” Wasserman Schultz said. “We have put our considerable grassroots resources behind him. All of the Obama for America and state party resources, our grassroots network is fully engaged. And — well, I think what’s going to happen is that because of our on-the-ground operation, we have had an opportunity in this election, because especially given that Wisconsin is a battleground state, just like we did in the recall elections a year ago, to give this a test run.”

“I think Tom Barrett will pull this out,” she added, “but regardless it has given the Obama for America operation an opportunity to do the dry run that we need of our massive, significant, dynamic grassroots presidential campaign, which can’t really be matched by the Romney campaign or the Republicans, because they’ve ignored the ground operations.”

I don’t know about all of your **’s, but this lady looks like she really could stand to stay at home long enough to wash her hair before she goes before the camera.

She could take her hair to Wisconsin and make it a dirty, greasy, smelly run.

Well, the DNC is planning on jamming the election with lawsuits and motions in hopes the American people will roll over.
Safe bet.....after tying up the election in the courts for months, the people just might say the hell with it.
Not anyone here..

They couldn’t find anyone as smart as a rabbit, so they went for the one that looked like a possum.

You really have to wonder about a woman that would be seen looking like that.

She could be groomed and cleaned up and look very presentable. Why would she let herself go like this!?

It’s an oddity.

Everything and everyone connected with this Obama nightmare is odd.

This is the way of the left. Attack anyone and anything that dares to have an opinion other than theirs. They used to have a sure thing legislating through the courts. Now they can’t be sure of the way that would turn out because of judges that were appointed by W. So now it is take to the streets and take over state houses to throw tantrums.

Is Pres. Obama ready to campaign along side Dem candidate Tammy Baldwin? ready to claim their values are the mainstream values of Wisconsin and America? Come on Pres Obama, announce that to America.

The Democrats have bought themselves a “tar-baby” deal in Wisconsin. For those unfamiliar with the term, it is from Uncle Remus, His Songs and His Sayings, a series of old African folk tales. Br’er Rabbit becomes offended by what he perceives as Tar Baby’s lack of manners, and strikes the doll figure first about the face and head, then spanks the figurine, of course getting tar all over himself, because that is what the figurine was fashioned from. Br’er Fox is in the background, laughing at the predicament that the normally sly and very clever Br’er Rabbit has gotten himself into.

There is a lesson in there, but of course, the Democrats will take away exactly the wrong understanding, as they consider the term “tar-baby” to be racist.

And that isn’t even what the tale was about.

They must know they cannot win an election, look for many surprises in the way of anything to disrupt or permanently cancel the election.

Looks like the polls are not very good for Democrats for the Wisconsin recall.

Therefore Debbie does her little bullshit dance.

...our massive, significant, dynamic grassroots presidential campaign...

I'll tell you what, I live in commie central (S.F.) and I have never seen a more lackluster 'Rat presidential campaign.

There is nothing going on around here.

I think the leftists are going to get whipped right out of their boots in November.

She be remodeling her house trailer down yonder in Florida and got tangled up with the trash truck when it was making a run down the street.

No offense to house trailer inhabitants.

I’m confused, she’s the head of the DNC, right? It’s reported that they have pulled all financial support from the recall effort. Isn’t she aware of what her group has done? Dumb twit is bloviating again. She may, yet, turn into the Republican’s greatest campaign asset!

Wasn’t it rumored that she was hidden to avoid just such gaffes?

But she is entertaining, I’ll give her that. Though, I don’t think the Dems or the Progressives would agree.
