Walker raised nearly 5 times more than Barrett from in state donations

[240 is Back]

would walker still have won, if they had equal money to spend?   of course not.  but repubs from 50 states gave to this race, he ran against a guy that the voters already saw as a douche, and he gets to keep his job.

I guess the 'win' is in there somewhere.  He didn't get fired, but he needed to outspend 12-to-1 to keep his job.  Kinda like borrow from every relative you have, to buy your girlfriend a diamond ring, so she won't dump you.   You get the 'win' today, but you're still a dickbag in the long run.

[Straw Man]

Probably just to remind you that the unions got another well-deserved bitch slapping, junior.

unions didn't get bitch slapped

they got murdered

soon things will start getting better for everyone

also, the GAB said they would look for and strike duplicates as ordered by a judge.  Did they just not do that?

That is correct!  They did not.  

There are dozens of signatures on one form.  If a name appeared twice on one form, they may have struck it, but they did not cross reference.  Also, if a name appeared as  John Smith, John Q. Smith, John Quincy Smith, Johnathon Smith, etc., all names were kept.

[Princess L]

If Wisonsin law states that the "burden of challenging signatures is on the office-holder being targeted." Then it is, isn't it?  And if that's a bad thing, then push to have the law changed.

Are you kidding me!?!11?  It's just that kind of thing that sends them into hiding out in other states.

[Hugo Chavez]

Are you kidding me!?!11?  It's just that kind of thing that sends them into hiding out in other states.

I don't get it.  send who hiding?  If the rules for a recall say that the onus is on Walker to challenge signatures then how is that anyone else's fault if they don't get challenged?  If it's a bad law, it needs changed.  I don't get the hide in other states comment?

There's always going to be nutbags trying to manipulate elections.  That's never going to go away.

How many sigs did they collect over the amount needed?  If it's a huge number over, I doubt there was enough fraud to account for it.

You're right about one thing.  The douche still gets to keep his job - Barrett; the Mayor of Milwaukee.

Looks like you've been brainwashed by the national liberal media.  Just WHAT SPECIFICALLY has Walker done wrong?  Balanced the budget? Lowered taxes? Created jobs? What?

This statement just reaffirms the fact that people outside of this state are not being fully informed by the national media.

I dislike Walker because he admitted, in his own words, that he considered planting 'troublemakers' into a peaceful, non-violent crowd to serve his political goals.

That is MAJORLY wrong.  You have tens of thousands of people, and you send 'troublemakers' in there to turn it into a riot, where people get hurt, arrested, or worse.

he chose not to incite violence among peaceful, law-abiding protesters only because he thought it'd refelect poorly on him.

He's a douche because of this.  that's just about evil.



Murphy: Right, right. Well, we’ll back you any way we can. But, uh, what we were thinking about the crowds was, uh, was planting some troublemakers.
 
Walker: You know, the, well, the only problem with that — because we thought about that. The problem — the, my only gut reaction to that is right now the lawmakers I’ve talked to have just completely had it with them, the public is not really fond of this. The teachers union did some polling of focus groups, I think, and found out that the public turned on ’em the minute they closed school down for a couple days. The guys we’ve got left are largely from out of state, and I keep dismissing it in all my press conferences saying, ‘Eh, they’re mostly from out of state.’My only fear would be is if there was a ruckus caused is that that would scare the public into thinking maybe the governor has gotta settle to avoid all these problems. You know, whereas, I’ve said,‘Hey, you know, we can handle this, people can protest. This is Madison, you know, full of the ’60s liberals. Let ’em protest.’It’s not gonna affect us. And as long as we go back to our homes and the majority of the people are telling us we’re doing the right thing, let ’em protest all they want. Um, so that’s my gut reaction, is that I think it’s actually good if they’re constant, they’re noisy, but they’re quiet, nothing happens, ’cause sooner or later the media stops finding ’em interesting.

You're not aware of the HUGE fiasco in Feb. '11 where the entire (D) senate fled to Illinois for over a month to avoid dealing with the collective bargaining bill?  The incident that got this whole mess rolling?

You're basing your entire opinion on a fleeting thought?  When was violence even mentioned?

[Hugo Chavez]

yes I remember that.  I didn't understand what you meant.  So pushing for a law to change something like that won't work because the dems will flee?  There's always ballot initiatives if you're worried about that.  Doesn't seem like something they would flee over though... how many times has that happened?

I was being sarcastic.  Regardless, if it doesn't serve them and their agenda, they will find some way to not let it pass.

You'll grab any pile of shit and run with it.
Seriously.

Got to love how the leftists are crying about money when Obama swamped McCain in money and the left never said a damn thing.

Hey i thoughts you sopprted free market capitalism

Oh brother    
It figures Lena "Don't You Know Who I Am" Taylor is behind the allegations
She is the biggest lying, deceitful, fraud leading, classless, POS, out there.  She's the loud mouth, ghetto trash talking Senator from District 4 (look it up) who has repeatedly been caught assisting in voter fraud (she makes sure her hands are clean tho), consistently votes against anything that makes sense (voter ID, mining bill), pulls the "don'tcha know who I am" card whenever it suits her (traffic tickets, airline flight upgrades), incites near riot demonstrations, calls for boycotting small businesses who do not support the recall Walker campaign...  she's always bitching about something.  She's one of those who screamed the loudest regarding the voter ID law.  Of course she doesn't support voter ID.  It would make it much more difficult to pay people off with cigarettes, beer and hotdogs for votes.  She is an embarrassment to the position and to the state.

The robocalls apparently did occur, but they did not come out of the Walker campaign. It's under investigation.

[Fury]

Oh look, the board's resident liar pulling more assertions out of thin air.

Got any proof to back that bold claim up? I won't hold my breath waiting.


I still can't stop laughing at how butt hurt you are over this. It's even funnier when you take into account your claims of not caring while you simultaneously log dozens of posts about it.

[Soul Crusher]

 . Go to love how devastated the leftists are over this.  Had walker lost they would have been dancing in the streets. 


The leftist agenda has been rejected, get over it.

Will you be voting for her in the next election?

when you have a crowd of tens of thousands peacful - and you introduce 'troublemakers' - its' very likely that violence will erupt.

And that leads to people getting KILLED.  If you've seen 70,000 people in one park, you know what potential such an uncontrolled mass of people can bring.

And walker was okay with that possible outcome - he just didn't want it to reflect on him negatively.

STFU.  You never said shit when Obama backed SEIU and ACORN were showing up at AIG execs houses, beating up people etc. 

What the hell happened to you bro?
