Landslide! It looks like Waterloo in Wisconsin for government unions.

It took the right circumstances, yes. But without a leader like Scott Walker, these things are impossible.

Kloppy right after the election kept saying how the voters decided that because she would be an ‘impartial justice in the court’ that is why ‘she won’. She kept reiterating this over and over which only raises suspicions that she is covering over that she would really be a leftist hack from the far left.

I’m a Wisconsin Tea Party supporter, I am giddy. I vote in the community where the Supreme Court votes were counted yet initially unreported to the AP . We are whooping it up now that the liberal Supreme Court justice candidate is some 7000 votes behind after declaring victory.

Ditto. Thank you Scott Walker and the Wisconsin conservatives!

This is likely to be the last Wisconsin election in which the Democrats have the advantage of support from organizations with the power to raise campaign funds coercively.

Starved of the nourishment of forcibly collected dues, It seems like this is what every liberty-leaning state should do. Forget all the other issues for now. Just argue the fiscal savings of the state not spending administrative costs on, what amounts to, doing the union's work for them.
There's no doubt in my mind that every single union would be kaput in less than 5 years time. Maybe 2 or 3, even.

I doubt very many will stop paying dues. All this does is stop them from being “involuntarily” deducted from the paycheck. Most of the members will be bullied into paying them “voluntariy”.
