Can't wait for Ohio's "right-to-work" ballot initiative to wind up passing so I'll officially have no reason whatsoever to remain in this country

 

[eznark]

Wow, talk about a fucking mandate.

Dems just gave Walker a massive vote of confidence. Smart move. Maybe right to work will be on the table after all.

All the senate races being reported are clown shows as well.

It'll probably about a 4-6 point win when all said and done.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

I believe this is the last elections people can go ga-ga over until Nov

Wooho

Me and my father have been conversing over this sad state of affairs, and I'm afraid he's going to burst into flames. It's getting ridiculous on every level imaginable.

This is hilarious

That doesn't seem like something that Walker or any Party higher-ups would approve of. If not for moral standards, than certainly due to the common sense that it would easily come to light.

My guess, some lackey thought, "Everyone's going to be so impressed with my idea! It's so smart, and after he wins, I'm sure Mr. Walker will give me a big promotion for showing initiative!"

Looking closer to 6 at this point. Waukesha is only 10% reported and Walker is staying within 10 points in Dane. He did shockingly well in the Madison suburbs.

I bet he's glad he stayed away now.

 

[Black Republican]

i know its 30% in, but the diffrence is crushing

 

[cartoon_soldier]

It was the right move.

The Obama campaign did not want this recall to happen in the first place. Local Democrats were freaking stupid to do this.

 

[eBay Huckster]

I settled in to listen to crushingly depressing music before polls even closed, I ain't even mad

 

[The Technomancer]

I have never before been ashamed of being from Wisconsin. I always thought we were a pretty progressive state.

 

[eznark]

It'll come down. Lots of Milwaukee and Dane to report. However Waukesha (city, not county) is also all still out.

I made a thread for it if you guys get sick of the aftermath talk.

 

[Gary Whitta]

Maddow had an interesting segment earlier about how by destroying unions the GOP essentially also destroys the last remaining major donors to democratic candidates.

[JohnTinker]

Ed Schultz is beside himself

 

[eznark]

Van Wanggaard results starting to come in. He's up 30 with 10% reporting. I'm going to assume none of that is the cities.

That's characteristic of Walker's term so far, see the voter ID law as well.

wonder if dnc chair is gonna get blamed for the loss

debbie been a weak chair imo

He'll probably still will Dane co by about 20.Barret is getting slaughtered everywhere else. It can't look like this for Obama in 2012.

Nah, I would assume the locals will get blamed. Tate will probably be fired. Zielinski as well.

It's shit like this that makes me want to throw my hands up in the air and say 'fuck it'.

It's fucking horrifying how they can cajole and cripple voters like this. Not to mention all those damn ads and robocalls.

I'm very worried about the presidential election in november. Especially with Romney's corporate backing.

Jesus....

 

[ErasureAcer]

Enjoy being unemployed Wisconsin. haha.

 

[Black Republican]

walker vp material?

wonder what team romney is thinking

 

[eBay Huckster]

Enjoy being unemployed Wisconsin. haha.

don't forget the lower wages for people who do stay employed

 

[ezekial45]

Enjoy being unemployed Wisconsin. haha.

They already are.

 

[Measley]

Big labor in Wisconsin just go punched in the balls.

Obama is probably shaking his head in disgust right now.

 

[ezekial45]

So how much longer does Walker have in office before the next coming gubernatorial elections?

 

[eBay Huckster]

So let's see... Walker about to win comfortably, every E3 conference was terribad except for Ubisoft's, and Miami's probably going to go up 3-2 tonight.

Fuck this week.

e: And now Kosmo-lite posted!

 

[Kevitivity]

Pretty fantastic news tonight. California needs to so something simular, but I doubt it would be possible. Anyone have the numbers on how much Democrats in the state spent on this recall election?

4 million to walker's 30 million.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Amazing how Walker doesn't get recalled. Aren't there criminal investigations involving him too? Wisconsin is just stupid. I'm ashamed to be their neighbor but then we elected Timmy The Tool, twice...so we're not much brighter.

 

[Gary Whitta]

Romney is too busy admiring the original Hitler art hanging in the house of one of his billionaire donors tonight to notice, I guess. I wonder if they will raffle off his signed copy of Mein Kampf to raise funds.

 

[eznark]

2014 is the next election. Considering he came out of this better off than before and there was no voter ID? The guy is the next Tommy Thompson.

Republicans are Nazi's and Democrats are Superheros. You will do well in Hollywood, Gary.

Don't forget the SC HC ruling. Could still be announced this week. Maybe even tomorrow morning. This week could easily get worse.

I cannot fucking wait until 2016

All my hopes now rest on Prop 29 in CA! Voted for that today, will be bummed if it doesn't make it.

 

[The Librarian]

I think we would've known on Monday if the SC was announcing its ruling on ACA.

Maybe the guy makes really good coffee, Gary.

I'd say you would probably get a job pretty easily with a republican think tank with your "economic" education background.

 

[eznark]

Kleefisch won. So when Shuster is proven right (lol) and Walker is indicted, Becs will be the new governor. God help Wisconsin.

 

[Suite Pee]

I don't expect an upset, but I do see the final numbers from Madison/Milwaukee making it a close finish and not a mandate (but we all saw what Bush Jr. thought of as a mandate).

 

[elephantsonparade]

Silver Lining:

NY times exit poll has general election results: Obama 53, Romney 42. Though the exit polls show much tighter race in Walker election than the actual current results (by a lot). So maybe exit poll is garbage.

 

[PhoenixDark]

So does Walker stay in Wisconsin or go for the presidency in 2016 (if Obama wins)? Seems like it would make sense to let Christie have 2016 and keep on trucking in Wisconsin imo

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Scotusblog says HCR Ruling will be in the last 2 weeks of June. So Chill out buys.

The other shoe doesn't drop until then.

Christie/Walker 2016 you say?

Big problem with Exit Polls - Doesn't include Absentee ballots. Absentee Ballots got counted first and you see how much they were for Walker.

At least Watch_Dogs looks like the best thing since sliced bread and it's set in Chicago. Whee! Too bad it wont be released until 2013 holidays at the earliest :\
