So that means the newspapers who ran that bulls**t “Wisconsin voters send stinging rebuke to Scott Walker” stories are all printing retractions .. right?
Hello? McFly?

No, it would still be in the 50-50 range, but more like 50.60 to 49.40.
I think the automatic recount goes away if the difference is 1/2 of 1% or less, which it no longer is. I’m not sure about that, though, although I fairly sure I read that on the election night thread from someone who was giving a running analysis based on his/her knowledge of WI.

Here's the head Unionista celebrating Klopenkrisp's victory:
One day after Wisconsin voters turned out in force for a judicial election widely seen as a referendum on Gov. Scott Walkers law ending collective bargaining for public workers, the president of the AFL-CIO declared, the labor movement has a rich and vibrant future. In a speech called The Future of Unions," Richard Trumka insisted that term is no oxymoron.
The over-reaching of anti-worker politicians today may have given us the game-changer we need, he said at Wayne State University in Detroit. It may have provided the sparks for the next surge of labor.
Re-write!
So, since Kloppencommie LOST - then by his own logic, we can conclude that unions HAVE NO future, and the over-reaching by the smelly hippies in Wisconsin was the "game changer" that will seal their fate.
Hey, it's HIS argument!

there will be recount. Now it just has to be paid by unions (i.e. taxpayer money that was confiscated by unions)

Let's make sure we keep our fact straight. These votes were never "lost" No votes were "found". The votes were properly counted by the local precincts and reported to the county elections office. The county elections office duly recorded the results. The only thing that happened is that the results for this city were inadvertently omitted from a spreadsheet sent to the AP, so the AP was reporting incorrect totals. Confusing American Pravda with random vote totals should be standard procedure for the GOP.

Statement from JoAnne Kloppenburg campaign manager Melissa Mulliken: "Wisconsin voters as well as the Kloppenburg for Justice Campaign deserve a full explanation of how and why these 14,000 votes from an entire City were missed... yammer, sputter, outrage, innuendo..."
No votes were "missed." They were correctly tallied and recorded. The city total simply wasn't reported in a timely way to the AP, which is, after all, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the DNC.

Funny - the radio news on election day, when the socialist was leading Prosser, claimed this victory was a outright condemnation of Governor Walker. I'll be waiting for the retractions from the press. But I won't be holding my breath.
I will, however, be reminding them on their websites. Every day, if necessary.

This woman should lose her job over this. We cant have any doubts in the minds of the citizenry that the GOP was responsible for any shenanigans.
The best way to do that is to fire her for incompetence. You're a nutcase if you think that it would help the GOP to remove an elected official from office by fiat! In fact, I would even stand up against the GOP for such an abuse.

Now all we need is a pic of James O’Keefe sneaking off with the F5 button from that clerk’s machine.
I just love this. Most deserved and unexpected monkeywrench in recent political memory.

This woman should be scrutinized and if poor procedures are found, she should be appropriately disciplined.Think the voters will remember that long, and vote in a Democrat instead next time?

Are you sure?
Anyone can demand a recount, whenever, regardless of the "official" margin?
I'm not saying you're wrong...I'm just thinking there must be a threshold beyond which a recount will not be granted.
Let's just say I'm HOPING you're wrong.

I just love this. Most deserved and unexpected monkeywrench in recent political memory. This is absolutely delicious, even more so because it's completely fair. I feel like Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown.
And ... loving it.

Libs on KOS and DU are going absolutely homicidal over this. On DU, they are calling for riots.
music to my ears!!!!
For some eye candy... try doing a google search for "Wisconsin Walker loss" to see the hundreds of liberal scumbags gloating over this apparent 'defeat' for Walker!
