4. Good Question
I still don't know how it happened but as anywhere AM Radio is all Righties, caging is going on and people didn't vote. For future reference I hope Wisconsinites get serious and vote.

10. Simple (it happened in other places as well last November):
Walker received 90% of the number of votes that McCain received in 2008, so Republicans managed to get their asses to the polls and vote.

Tom Barrett, Walker's Democratic opponent, only received 60% of the number of votes that Obama received. Over 600,000 people who voted for Obama did not bother to vote here last November. Just 25% of that 600,000 going for Barrett would have defeated Walker.

That's how it happened here.

A sign I saw in Madison that tells the story:

13. Hey, don't fuck with me tonight
I've worked my butt off for the Dems in every election, and I haven't missed voting in an election since I was eligible to vote. What we DON'T need tonight is to have people kick us in the teeth while we're down.

Take a look at the ads funded by Koch - plastered on our airwaves - all I asked was that DU help us to counter that.

I have been at the Capitol every day that I haven't been too sick to go.

So pick a different time to sound so righteous, please.

Thank you.
