The Obama campaign which has largely kept President Obama himself out of the Wisconsin recall election puts out a statement saying that a message had been sent to Gov. Scott Walker, despite his win.
"While tonights outcome was not what we had hoped for no one can dispute the strong message sent to Governor Walker. Hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites from all walks of life took a stand against the politics of division and against the flood of secret and corporate money spent on behalf of Scott Walker, which amounted to a massive spending gap of more than $31 million to $4 million," Tripp Wellde, campaign state director, said in a statement.
"It is a testament to all of those individuals who talked to their friends, neighbors, and colleagues about the stakes in this election of how close this contest was. The power of Wisconsins progressive, grassroots tradition was clearly on display throughout the run up to this election and we will continue to work together to ensure a brighter future for Wisconsins middle class," Wellde said.

no one can dispute the strong message sent to Governor Walker I agree, as long as the message was akin to "keep on keepin' on".

Obama’s just puffing up his chest to make himself look more important.
Fail.

"Strong message"? He was re-elected with a greater margin than before! That message is "hey, you're doing a better job than we thought you would - keep it up!"

When the gun backfires, you don't just reload and expect a different outcome?
What is with these idiots?

This gotta be a joke, right? Some one hacked Astroturf’s account? A Dem/Union sound defeat is concern for Romney?
He might as well just call it for Obama in Nov instead of going through the actual voting. “Headline: Dewey Wins”

Obama is correct.
The message sent by the recall election to Governor Walker is something along the line of “Damn the Unions! Full speed ahead!”

Suggested Walker reply:
“We don’t mind the unions joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.”
And:
“I won.”

It’s starting to look like the Baraq Hussein Obama Presidential Library and Choom Gang Museum will be built in 2013 instead of the currently planned 2017.
