Todays the day!

If you know any cheeseheads tell 'em to get off their butts and vote tomorrow.
Wisconsin as we all know is taking a big step towards righting a grave wrong being forced on their state courtesy of the Republican Governor's group, et al. The rabid anti union forces have come into Wisconsin and attacked any and every public service employee in their state. Governor Walker really needs to be shown the door.

Been supporting them as much as we can to help get rid of that idiot Walker. His bunch knocked Barret's phone system out with some underhanded trick. Since he is funded by the Koch brothers the Dems need all the help they can get.

So far, it's squeaky close. But, I really just can't even stand the sight of that buttkissing little punk. I'd LOVE to watch him go down.

He may go down for real. He is being investigated for election fraud.

I don't hold out much hope for Barret because that wacko woman, that keeps her counties election results on her personal computer, will suddenly find enough votes to put Walker over the top. She has done it twice already in other races.

In addition to the active "John Doe" grand jury investigation in Milwaukee, he also cheated in his election for student government at Marquette University (where he never finished). The circumstances of his departure from MU remain unclear.

I actually agree with his position vis-a-vis public sector unions, but disagree with his tactics and demeanor. The concept of public sector unions has never made much sense to me and their symbiotic relationship with the Democratic Party heightens my skepticism as to their merit.

Yup! There is a lot of truth to this. It's a shame it's so hard for so many to see.

Yeah Bullcrap if you ask me. All of a sudden public employee unions should be stripped of their collective bargaining rights particularly in light of Citizens United? Gotta disagree boys.
