After only 12-days over 300,000 signitures to recall Scott Walker!!!
A whopping 301,214 signatures to recall Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker had been collected as of last night, the Democratic Party of Wisconsin has confirmed to Daily Kos. This is more than 55 percent of the 540,000 required to trigger a recall election.
Republican-leaning areas are providing some of the most energy to the recall campaign. For example, in Columbia County, which George W. Bush narrowly won in 2004, organizers have already exceeded 100 percent of their goal for the entire petition drive. They had 10,033 signatures in hand as of last night, after setting a 60-day target of 9,235.

The recall started big, and hasn't slowed down at all. With 50,000 signatures gathered in the first two days and 105,000 in the first four, after twelve days grassroots activists are still pulling in 25,000 every single day (excluding Thanksgiving, of course).

United Wisconsin, one of the key grassroots groups involved in the Walker recall, is aiming to turn in signatures on January 13. Every indication is that they will have an Earth-shattering number when they do.

1. Saw that on Ed last night
The people of Wisconsin may have been fooled once, but they will not be fooled again. On Wisconsin.

2. This will give a serious warning to the other super-right-wing governors that they are next!
These strong anti-fascist feelings should carry over into November, 2012. We've
had more than enough of right-wing BS to last us for a life-time.
