Thank you both.
Isn’t there supposed to be a recall election against Gov. Walker sometime?
I have a lib here at work proudly stating this every now and then.
(He’s probably retching in a toilet somewhere after reading tonight’s results)

“Madison, you defended that 2010 electoral mandate. You are heroes. You are patriots. And when the history of this Tea Party movement is written, what you accomplished here will not be forgotten. Your historic stand brought down the curtain on the last election, and the 2012 election begins here. We will take the courage and the integrity that you showed all of America. We will take it and we will win back our country … We will fight for America. And it starts here in Madison, Wisconsin. It starts here! It starts now! … Mr. President, game on!”

"And now that they lost, they looped the tape back to three hours ago when they still had hope ... LOL !!!"

I was wondering what happened.

They had Hopper ahead. Wonder if North Korean News will declare Darling the winner before LSDNBC?

Walker has to be in office for ONE year, before the same BS will be thrown at him.

Another cool thing is both Darling and Harsdorf won with bigger margins this time than they did last time.

Kapanke's loss was pretty much inevitable given the heavy unionization in his district, and Hopper had the martial issues already chronicled on this thread.

If we can run an exciting candidate in Hopper's district in 2012, no reason we can't put that one back in the GOP column as well.

Now, lets take a RAT seat next week and make our our hold on the Senate a little less tenuous.

Check out this thread:
That is what they are doing this year.

I'm sure next year they will have one or more Nationwide Bus Tours, the last one ending around election day.

I'm betting they will be having a few stops in Wisconsin.

Throw in everything we’ve got to defeat Holperin and elect Simac. Everybody help.

Gimme the names of the counties and major cities involved and I'll do it.
