Of course everyone ignored Howard on MoJoe this morning
He repeatedly said in essence - No worries, we can stop any stupid thing Walker does if we
win that last senate seat.

MADISON (AP) The last, crucial recall race that will determine whether Democrats gain control of the state Senate or Gov. Scott Walker's fellow Republicans retain control of the full Legislature was too close to call early Wednesday morning.
Unofficial returns from Tuesday's election in Racine's 21st Senate District showed Democratic challenger John Lehman leading incumbent Republican Sen. Van Wanggaard by less than 800 votes with all precincts reporting.
Democrats needed Lehman to defeat Wanggaard to gain a one-seat majority in the Senate and save at least some face after Republicans easily turned back five other recall bids Tuesday. Lehman, who held the seat until Wanggaard defeated him in 2010, was quick to declare the grudge match a victory and Democratic Senate Leader Mark Miller issued a statement declaring himself the new majority leader.

Get ready for an ugly bloodbath in November.
