Whether it goes "good" or "bad"

this could be the event that turns the tide, unites the people, outrageous enough to get the attention of public, politicians and media. WI attacks on public servants and services, including education, unions and public safety, affect all American families. As do stolen elections. And corrupt officials. And rich feeding off the backs of poor, what's left of the middle class. Wisconsin is Ground Zero for the life or death of the American way of life and the Middle Class. Can't get no more "centrist" than that.

Government that they deserve, based on this election. If Wisconsinites haven't figured out by now that Walker should have been gotten rid of, it's all over.

there's a lot that you could say "it's all over." so the OP suggests this MIGHT be outrageous enough to get broader attention. Or not!

for this jerk want him, they have got him. Unfortunately those that didn't vote for him are going to have to suffer with this guy. But I have to agree, if they haven't figured it out by now, there is no more organizing and fighting that can be done. Everyone that was up for recall were upheld. That tells me something. They got him, they can have him. All I hope for is that this jerk gets indicted. I am grateful I don't live there.
