Thread: Wisconsin Republicans Trounce Democrats in Turnout

I've been saying for some time Wisconsin is an underrated threat for turning red.

Well, perhaps underrated no longer - I would bet there are some folks concentrating very hard on this question at Obama's HQ in Chicago this morning.


Despite Having No Competition, Walker Get's 60,000 More Votes Than All Democrats Combined

I think there was a clarification, that it wasn't more then all democrats combined, but more then the 2 main contenders (Barret and Faulk) combined. Still, very impressive and I would assume will put some worry into the minds of the unions in WI.

And to top it of the unions bought and paid for candidate lost.

The trend to look at it as one side defeating the other, rather than any kind of actual progress for the nation, is one of the big things that is harming this nation. Nice job being a part of the problem, guys.

Golly geez willikers. I have a degree in Political Sceinece, taught it for 33 years and now work in politics and government and never knew until today that is how you determine who really "won" the election.

You learn something new each day.

The headline in the linked story in the OP is a blatant lie. Somebody needs to learn how to add the numbers OF ALL DEMOCRATS COMBINED.

Whether he wins or not...Scott Walker is a piece of garbage

Why? Because he doesn't want the people not to be beholden to public unions? Sounds like a smart guy imo.

That's absolutely frightening. No wonder the country is going to hell.

Nope not the reason at all...and thats not his motivation...he took from working class and gave it to the richest in wisconsin...if unions endorsed HIM he wouldnt have touched them....thats what the teaparty is about...take from the working class and give it MORE to the rich...its in EVERYTHING they introduce...cuts to the working class and tax cuts for the rich...you have to be blind or brainless not to see precisely what they are all about.
The teaparty is going to make more gains this time around...they they are going to crash and burn....as soon as people realize holy wow weve been sodomized AGAIN

If Walker is so much against the working class then why is it that the unemployment is at its lowest since December of 2008? Sorry but reality trumps talking points.
