Well, Krissy count yourself lucky. The pro-Walker thugs have been burning up my phone line. I no longer answer it. I’m an independent moderate. I vote for the person. I voted for Walker originally because he said he would reNEGOTIATE with the public unions. I don’t care what anyone thinks of public unions, but I do know I don’t like politicians depicting public employees, our neighbors as evil people. The right rhetoric against hard working teachers, nurses, and other public employees was way over the top. That along with Walker ‘considering’ putting trouble-makers among the protesters. converting public jobs to patronage jobs, severe restrictions on wind energy and wanting to sell off state assets without bid, is what convinced me sign the recall petition. BTW if the GOP wants my vote in 21012, they better school Romney and Ryan about WI election laws so they don’t violate them again.

The only thugs that knocked on my door and rang my phone off the hook have been the AFL-CIO out of Washington DC and the way overpaid union thugs from Madison. Not a single one of these Koch people like those on the rabid side of left think.

There were 2,160,832 total votes cast in the 2010 Wisconsin Governor’s election. Walker won 52% to 46%. Democrats have gathered a million signatures to recall Walker. The obvious big question is, which Party will do a better job of getting their voters to the ballot box in June? Democrats seem much more enthusiastic, but I suppose we’ll find out for sure in a couple of months…

I’m impressed this morning. You see, I live in a city in Wisconsin that has a State University in it, meaning that it is usually democrat dominated. My city had mayoral elections. The conservative won, beating the liberal. That is pretty big given how many anti-Walker yard signs are accompanied by the liberal mayor candidate signs that are throughout the city.
At my poll in my ward yesterday, I saw neighbors that never vote. It is encouraging to see so many people getting sick of this anti-Walker in-your-face attitude these people have. The democrats in my area were shocked in 2010. They were shocked again last summer when they tried to recall our state representative and their rabid candidate got pummeled. Now they are shocked again this morning. I love it. Keep up the great work my fellow Wisconsinites!

Let’s see, the voting population of Wisconsin is 4.36 Million.
1 Million lefties sign a recall petition.
That’s 23%.
Sounds about right.

AND 1 MILLION…that’s right 1 million people signed a petition to recall the Koch Brother sponsored GOP Governor of that State. That is almost the total number of people who voted in the first election. Watch all the ‘money and lies’ pour into Wisconsin from now until June and November. LOL…and I’ll bet most of that money on the ‘right wing side’ comes from two brothers out of Texas. Wake up middle class. Your democratic voice is being stolen by those who are the wealthiest in this nation. This is a great example of how wrong tthe Citizens United decision was. By a ‘right wing Supreme Court’…no less.
