Until that happens nothing really HAS happened.. in Wisconsin..

You are so full of crap!!!
Gov. Walker of WI took on the unions virtually single handed. He got harassed. Threatened. His private home picketed. Recall election. Yet, he survived the onslaught of national unions. His name is an obscenity in union halls throughout America.
I'd say he's done a damned fine job! Perhaps when legislature reconvenes, he'll move to make WI a RTW State. I can only wish Republicans in Jeff City were as aggressive as Gov. Walker and his supporters in WI. Alaska as well...
Tell me where you got that idea. I don't live in WI, but one senator can impact everyone in the country - take the example of Ben Nelson (NE) and Obamacare. So I'm highly interested in this race.
If ol' Ben had just said no, Obamacare would not now be the law of the land and ol' Ben may be sitting pretty for re-election.
I hope the good people of WI vote for the candidate that has the best chance of burying Baldwin. Thompson is a known, but Hovde is a new kid on the block. What we don't need is another Angle or O'Donnell. But I think the GOP voters in WI are smart enough not to go that route.
“If Walker was courageous he try to institute legislation making Wisconsin a “RIGHT TO WORK STATE”..
He would become famous and set the stage for other States around the Great LAkes to do the same..”...........
“Timing” is the answer. Let the dust settle before making the next move. I have great confidence in Gov. Walker and have encouraged him to introduce such legislation. Time will tell.
“Not that anyone would want to with her but why would a working man vote for a woman who wouldn’t have sex with him?”
Amen to that!
i gotta laugh. from your comment, i guess you wouldn’t know that i spent hundreds of dollars in time and money (volunteering and calls) to help o’donnell and angle because i judged them to be true conservatives. it’s precisely because i don’t see an o’donnell, angle or a walker in this senate race that i’m staying out of it with my resources and letting the “smart” people on the ground in wisconsin sort it out.
Angle and O’Donnell might have been true conservatives, but they were neophyte politicians and got torn to shreds because of it.
I’m still of the old school thinking that “you should support the most conservative candidate WHO CAN WIN.”
The venerable FR contributor, Common Tator (may he RIP) convinced me of that. Wish he were still around.
Lets Hope...
[ You are so full of crap!!! ]
You are full of good wishes... I want to see RTW....
I don't think any real conservative in Delaware would have much chance. And Angle (and her campaign) made some serious blunders in NV. RNC offered little help.
Go with your gut, Mary. Hovde is the man, despite the nast Club for Growth ads. As much as I like Fitzgerald, he has no money, and his campaign is going nowhere. Baldwin has raised a ton of money. It will take deep pockets to oppose her in Nov.
Unfortunately, many Republicans are tapped out after the recall debacle. We need Hovde and his money to win this seat.
Union membership is down by 50% in Wisconsin since Walker’s election. I think a bigger problem in Wisconsin is same day registration at the polls. It invites voter fraud. Hopefully the next legislature will address that problem.
Wisconsin ping!
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
Okay. I’m almost there, B.
