The recall for Bob Wirch (dem) in WI has started
and there is a lot of money (Club for Growth - grover norquist)in it and highly organized.


Anyone here from counties with repub senators here? Has recalls started? Where's the organization and money on our side?

2. I don't understand. Why the recall? Just to get one more vote?
Why single out Bob Wirch?

4. And why exactly are we (we being the general public) playing these
petty political games? "I'll recall your ass". How f'ing childish - on both sides.

5. Welcome To American Politics 2011
It's all about winning at all costs. It's attack and retribution as compromise is a dirty word. It's also a big money game where millions are squandered and there's a cottage industry in running elections. All that money's gotta go somewhere. One big winner is the corporate media who make the lion's share with teevee ads.

Unfortunately these games have served the rushpublicans well as last fall's elections show...
