Once again. Burke was an aweful candidate. She ran only as the anti-Walker. No one knew anything about her until the past week when Walker smeared her as having been fired from her own family company.

True or not, it didn't matter because all she could say was "I wasn't fired, our company reorganized, and my job was eliminated".

It's fucking divisive to blame hundreds of thousands of dems that gave their votes only to be fall short.

It's great to get assed kicked mercilessly

part of the U.S. (Texas, for one) moved up there and bought up those big farms for next to nothing.

Some of the best farmland in the U.S. went cheap and the RW'rs grabbed up tons of it and set up shop there with their right wing views. So much for the Progressive State.

I said something like that about Illinois earlier and offended a member from there. I apologized.

But, yeah the majority.. bought by Koch.. and bring down those who are too smart for that shite that makes life easier for Billionaires but screws theirselves.
