Now that it is over, perhaps the worthless unions should reimburse the state for the millions it cost the citizens to pay for this debacle!

They stole money from the poor, the schools, the “little children” and probably stole their lunch money. Grandma may not even get her teeth fixed.

Next time you hear a liberal talk about helping the poor, remember how they robbed from the poor to support the rich unions and george soros, et.al.

Blessings, bobo

YEP but if Barret won it would have been reported a ‘mandate’ for Obama........LOL

It’s fun to watch the ‘progressives’ try to spin this!

Special elections in Mississippi and elsewhere in 2008 that went to the Dems sure were big news for them then.

Another silver lining to this is how much this cost the unions. Their war chest has to be dented.

Congrats to Gov. Walker and you Wisconsinites here.

Now, it gets interesting. The fact is, Gov. Walker hadn't set out to put in a bill "stripping public employee unions of their collective bargaining rights through Wisconsin's legislature"; his aim was only to make them take a little less so as to save the budget. But, thanks to the Great Liberal Media blowing his minor reforms out of proportions, he now has a real genuine mandate to "[strip] public employee unions of their collective bargaining rights through Wisconsin's legislature."

Way to go, media: your ballyhoo just made Gov. Walker's victory more momentous than it would have been, had you decided not to thump the tub. You people really got hoist by your own petard, now didn't you?

How far it will go, nobody knows - but the tide has turned. I'd watch out for a PATCO-style confrontation next.

WI State Senator Risser (on Ed Schultz show):

“Walker hasn’t worked with us in the past. We hope he’ll work with us *again* in the future.”

LMAO!

Yeah, it's times like these when they fall apart and make "gaffes."

They've managed to motivate the Republican base as well. It's 5 months to the Nov election, so I hope people remember this night!

Today’s Lesson for the proglodyte followers of BHO: The SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program)/Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is pleased to be distributing the greatest amount of free meals and food stamps ever. Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S.Department of the Interior, asks us to “Please Do Not Feed The Animals.” They say this is because the animals may grow dependent on handouts and not learn to take care of themselves. Thus endeth today’s lesson.
