Sorry, meant to answer this earlier today but I got busy and forgot to come back to it.
The thing I hate about unions, especially state-employee ones, is that it forces members of a government funded occupation to give money to a certain political party. So if you want to be a teacher, you have to donate money to the Democratic Party. You have no choice. That does not pass the smell test to me.
Also the whole push to eliminate secret ballot voting when it comes to unionization of private workforces destroys any belief I have in unions as a whole. Its just another action that makes them shady as fuck.

So is ABC and Fox News.
The same exit polls that put Walker up also had Obama up by 8%.
exit polls were way off.
I saw at 8:45 EDT on MSNBC that the exit polls were 52-48, Walker. Now it looks like 59-40; that's way off. I guarantee you that as of today, Obama has a hard time with some of his union supports.
this is a blow-out in WI. It will have a huge effect in November.

What it means -
1 - Republicans are kicking ass across most of the counties in the state. And they now have a much stronger ground organization to make WI a decent battleground for the election. The Republicans can thank big labor for calling for the recall. And they can thank Obama for not showing up to help labor in WI. That too will hurt him. Consider it a legitimate battleground now.
2 - The days of public labor unions bullying the taxpayor without consequence are waning.
3 - And, yes, RJ was wrong. Recall how RJ told us this would be the political end of Walker and the Republican party in WI. That was . . . wrong. It hasn't turned deep blue as he predicted. It's purple. Again, good work big labor.

Immediately falling for the trap that I wrote about in the original post.
you said in the original post, that it will be close. It was not.
The post where you said the election was close?

Pretty much. As usual, stupid liberals are their own worst enemy.

If you both think that the point of my post was a prediction of the closeness of the election, you missed the point entirely, not that you care. Point was, since you both can't interpret text, that Walker would win because of money and because people don't like recalls. And that it has nothing to do with November.

Show me again on this thread I said any such thing?
My bad you like to lie.

PH,
I know you are being sarcastic, but I agree with you here. 1-Why didn't Obama go to WI? 2-same sex marriage(pissed off conservative black ministers). 3-Obama goes out fundraising when the economy needs attention.
