 Odds are Walker will win the recall and then be twice as bad.
I hate to say it, but i think WI in in for a shit storm when he wins.
He'll take it as a mandate to do whatever he wants, and what he wants will destroy the State.

That's AWESOME! Here's hoping I have a damn job in short time then. Judging by the cool shit Walker has already done, I may well.

...but if he loses you get free cheese.

Only if it's Mozzarella.  Knowing Barrett, it'll be Limburger.

3. I hate to say it too

But if Walker wins it would appear that this is the kind of society socialist destroying garbage people actually want, and by the time scum like Walker are through implementing their handlers' agenda it will be too late to put this society socialism back together again.

We all have to realize, this is the nation that actually allowed George W Bush and Dick Cheney to have two terms in office.

4. I hope he is thrown out

but fear he won't. If he isn't. hell is coming to WI.

Walker threw it out, DUmbass, and won't let it return.

"...hell is coming to WI."... ...is that a threat?

"...hell is coming to WI."... ...is that a threat?

Most likely it is. "YOU KNOW JA!" and cursing out kids will possibly be the least of our worries.

I hope Walker kills Barrett. Look for the liberals heads to explode when he does. It will be beautiful to witness

Winning an election is an endorsement of the victors stated principles and prospective policies. given by a majority of the electors.

A recall election is usually done because of a controversial action(s) or policy(s) Taken/enacted by a politician. Surviving a recall election is in essence a manifesto of the people given in support of the survivor of the recall election.

I did a search at DU, how come no 1 posted an article that Wisconsin's largest union had more then half their membership opt out? they went from 63,000 members to 27,000?

That is what I heard also. They are going to lose a lot of money to donate to the democratic party over it.

7. I think there's a very good chance the WI Senate goes Dem.

AND there seems to be a good chance he'll be charged with crimes. All that together, it looks like he will be weakened no matter what unless he dodges all of these bullets which isn't likely. But, as Rachel said last night, even if we don't win any of the Senate seats, the WI Senate is deadlocked.

Don't get too excited, the Wisconsin Senate won't be in session to make a difference, and with redistricting? Republicans are expected to pickup more seats in Nov. so it would only be a temporary psychological win.

  awesome!

If those figures are right, that would be a loss of 36,000 members from 1 union, average dues are $800 a person, that's almost 30 million dollars taken out of the union.

How many of those 36,000 do you think will be voting for Walker on Tuesday?

That sounds about right, and I love it 

[Kyle Ricky]

I am hoping all of them.

[Ballygrl]

 awesome!

Here's the article snipped:

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304821304577436462413999718.html

Wisconsin membership in the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees—the state's second-largest public-sector union after the National Education Association, which represents teachers—fell to 28,745 in February from 62,818 in March 2011, according to a person who has viewed Afscme's figures. A spokesman for Afscme declined to comment.

[Ballygrl]

How many of those 36,000 do you think will be voting for Walker on Tuesday?

Yep! I think right now 39% of union households support Walker.

This PSA is brought to you by conservativecave. Just a reminder about the Senate Elections in Wisconsin:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/02/wisconsin-recall-democrats-state-senate_n_1563681.html

If Democrats retake the Senate with Walker remaining in the governor's mansion, the victory may be hollow. The state legislature has adjourned for the year and the Senate cannot return to Madison without the consent of the Republican-controlled Assembly, unless the governor calls them back. Half of the Senate faces voters in November. Democrats have said winning the majority in June can help with momentum for the November race.

Why does a successful state government program, terrify the primatives so much??
I would think any government program would please them.

We all have to realize, this is the nation that actually allowed George W Bush and Dick Cheney to have two terms in office. 

First of all dummie, this nation "didn't allow" GW Bush to have two terms in office. This nation voted him in. They also, thanks to the MSM, voted in obumbles and the dems. They saw their mistake in 2010, corrected it and something tells me they will correct the rest of their mistake come November. You libby dumbasses are so freaking stupid sometimes it just amazes me. Now that obumbles can't count on all the graduates of the last 3 years that can't find a job, his reelection chances look dismal. Despite the MSM being in the bag for him. It's one of those "who am I gonna believe, MSM spin or my lying eyes" type of thing. If the MSM would run one quarter of the "Can't find a job" stories they did under GW Bush, obumbles would get maybe 10 percent of the vote.

But I have really good news dummies. You finally got your message out. Unfortunately for you, 8.1 percent unemployment is not going over well with the electorate.

If Obama gets re-elected, It will show just how stupid people are. We are worse now than when Bush left office, but there is nothing being said about an economic meltdown or a great depression. You can guarantee that if McCain would have been elected, and things were like they are now. The MSM would be saying about how bad it every second of every day. Of course they will do the same thing when Romney gets elected in November. I give them till the end of January to start mentioning about jobs and a depression.

Whenever a Republican is elected President all the sudden the plight of the homeless returns to the fore front. Look for that to occur when Romney gets elected.

Theses are the things you will see again:

The economy is terrible.
Unemployment is too high.
Gas prices are to high (They will be showing the daily price calendar on MSNBC again).
The death toll in the wars we are in (They will be showing the daily tally on MSNBC again).
We are in another depression.
We are on an economical meltdown.
Calling Romney stupid.
Signs of how stupid they think Romney is. (And that will be just on MSNBC)
Pushing for war crime charges against Romney (From the drones that Obama is using)
Romney is in bed with big oil

If anyone can think of any others, please post them.
