Yes there are several cases that held that if a judge was voted in and had promised to vote a certain way, they would have to recuse...but whether that happens in our union controlled world remains to be seen.

My hope is that like in Union Grove where store merchants were extorted to put up pro-union signs, the rest of the voters in WI who are not represented by unions may get very disgusted wit the abuse of power that is going on in the state—either now which translates into a Prosser victory or later which translate into more conservatives in WI.

Any decent person who did not make the effort to vote for Prosser is a disgrace.

In order to find out how many votes they need to manufacture.

No. What it shows is that the ‘good people’ are too 9i8cowardly or too lazy or too cheapo make this a priority by taking to the streets and hiring the same kind of lawyers the rats hire.

The fact that Hannity didn’t even tease the Wisconsin story on his show tonight makes me nervous. The budget/shutdown story is certainly important too, but not even a mention of the Wisconsin situation when he went over what he’d be discussing tonight.

Well if our side in Wis doesn’t realize by now how important this vote is, then nothing will wake them up.

Have they been running commercials at all? What have the reactions of the residents been? do they realize how serious a vote this is?

The governor needs to expand the SC to 25 and load it with conservatives. Isn’t that what FDR threatened to get SS through...........180 out of phase.

Very true. All of concerned Americans are watching Wisconsin. If they fail, bankruptcy is the new option and all contracts are void.

First precinct is in! Shows Prosser down, but it’s from Dane County.

That’s how I’ve been thinking too, but on the positive side, if Prosser wins, we shouldn’t underestimate the power of this affirmation that we are on the right track and to double-down everywhere to keep moving in the right direction.

Both comments are probably true and unnerving...

LOL Hannity is the biggest coward when it comes to conservatism.
The coward can not even talk about conservative social issues, for fear of upsetting the likes of Bob Beckle and his other cocktail elitist party pals.

When we wanted a voice over don’;t ask he stayed silent, so muc for a man who states he is for the troops.

The man is a coward and nothing else who likes to cosy up to his liberal pals but to pretend and get conservative money and viewers.

One thing about it, or I believe that it is,we can’t quit. We are in the same boat with the Jews fighting the muslims, not neccarily the Arabs, they, like we, can’t lose but one.
Don’t kid yourself into thinking, the bastards we are fighting would gladly kill us if they could. Bill Ayers has already said that 25 million of us had to die.
