What? Rats and dirty tricks? Who’d a thunk? I hope Walker wins by a landslide!
Good news but I note the election is in May? A little premature, no? I assume they will run heavy advertising against him.
4 things of note:
1. As mentioned before the Dems are nowhere near 1 million sigs and the bad PR that will come from it during the race will hammer this waste of money home.
2. The current frontrunner Kathleen Falk has lost all her Statewide races and her union pay for play will not go over well.
3. The poll has Indys in strong favor of Walker...personally I think a lot of those Indys are Dems embarrassed by what has happened in the State due to leftist radicals.
4. Voter ID will be in effect.
I personally don’t think it will be close.
BTW
Recall fraud story:
http://mediatrackers.org/2012/02/man-charged-with-recall-fraud-gabs-suspect-review-needs-more-time/
IF local DA’s start going after these frauds like the Racine DA is I would think you’ll see less recall efforts in the future if they can’t ammend the recall rules.
I hope this "right to work" battle ends up like their fight against the liberalization of state gun laws. Walker was very smart not to over-reach, going only after bennies and campaign money. The rest will come after people start to realize the benefits.
Hopefully, this is not putting the cart before the horse and calling victory BEFORE the first ball is snapped.
If the actual election is set for May, a LOT of things could change and, if I were Walker, I’d continue holding off buying new curtains for his office.
Gotta love Walker!
Sorry, had to fix the typo.
This one is a civil war by other means.
The election is in May.
His numbers are frankly rather divided right now.
I am afraid a recall will almost certainly be successful. If anything these numbers are bad, not good.
These are straight up red communists that are trying to steal more money from the productive class
The right may win this battle, but shall surely lose the war, for the enfranchisement of all through constitutional amendments has turned this nation into a sure to fall Democracy.
The Founders wrote that all democracies murder themselves most violently
They were students of History, not career politicians out to make a buck by spreading other peoples wealth around
Voter fraud, voter fraud, voter fraud, and voter fraud will be the friend of Obama’s stooges in the Badger state.
I love this. The Union Rats blew so much money and time on doing this and it is going to blow up in their face. They didn’t even have challengers in some of these recall efforts lined up. What is the point to blow tons of Union and Rat cash on a recall when you don’t even have a plan to win? What a pack of losers.
After being dissappointed by my fellow MIchiganders yesterday, I am glad that you posted this hopeful news. My prayers are with the cheeseheads.
Walker is one of the most effective governors in the country. Leave it to the Dems to initiate a “recall competence” drive to give incompetence a chance.
I presume there will be a ton of voter fraud in the recall election. It may be harder for them to do, but they control the counting in many places, and as we saw during the protests, they also control the law in places like Madison.
Well, they didn’t manage to steal that state supreme court race, so maybe they won’t be able to steal this. Let’s hope.
May is a long ways off but here’s hoping Walker can make it, he an then use the wasted money theme against his opponents.
It's nine months to the elections and the Repubs are doing their best to fritter-away the righteous anger of 2010. The hapless Boehner has set the tone: cry and wet your pants as the Dems pile outrage upon outrage. The perfect neutered lap dog. Obama is the most viciously racist and criminal person ever to inhabit the White House. The public is enraged by what he has done but has not been given a clear vehicle to get rid of him and his communist lackeys. Will the Repubs harness this anger to drive him from office or will they piss-away this opportunity, too?
One way or another, things will change after the fall's elections. The Repubs are toast anyway, off to join the Whigs, whether they win in 2012 or not. Obama's communist utopian fantasy will implode. There are no longer enough compliant, working, tax-paying citizens to allow the country to continue functioning. Think the Tea Party is gone? Wait until the summer, when it reemerges, white-hot with justifiable fury at what Obama and his minions have been doing. Repub candidate? Won't matter; what will matter is defeating the Dems in a landside of anger. No, anger is not a good basis for policy, but when it happens, it happens. Wait until the Dems try their usual voter fraud stuff. This time they will be caught and exposed. We have simply reached a tipping point beyond which Obamaism can no longer be sustained. I expect him to revert to his natural racist, snarly ugliness as it comes down around him, even if he wins re-election. Times are a'changin'.
Whatever you do Wisconsin, do not rest! This is the same ploy the media pulled on us in Arizona... declared Russell Pearce was safe, so everyone went back to sleep and woke up on election eve to the news that the recall had been successful.
Huge. I hope he wins. He likely would have made at least as good a presidential candidate as the rest running.
