REAL democrats are all ahead of the "fake" democrats by comfortable margins.

On edit: Here's a link: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43734158/ns/politics/

"One fake Democrat was defeated and five others trailed in early election results Tuesday against Democrats supported by the party in the first recall elections targeting nine Wisconsin state senators for their positions on Republican Gov. Scott Walker's divisive union rights restrictions.

"The winners advance to take on incumbent Republicans targeted for recall on Aug. 9.

The state Republican Party orchestrated the placement of the fake Democrats on Tuesday's ballot, thereby delaying the general election for a month."

9. These are the primaries -- actual recalls are next month

The Republicans forced a situation where there has to be a Democratic primary first to choose the candidate to run against the Republican in the actual recall. That was to buy time for them to get their own political machine cranked up -- but then they tried to take further advantage of it by running "fake" Democratic candidates against the real Democrats in some of the primaries.

Luckily it sounds like the fakes aren't getting very far.
