This election is important nationally too. If Kloppenburg is elected the Wisconsin mandate by the electorate in 2010 in this state will be negated by the WI Supreme Court and the unions will have won.

I live in a hardcore conservative area and discovered today that my Prosser yardsign was mutilated and thrown into one of my plantings.

Pray for Wisconsin and for Prosser's election!

Holding back votes is an old ‘rat trick - wait until you see how many you need, and then come up with that many.

Waukesha County had a huge turnout.

Is that a good thing for P?

>I can’t say I am really very optimistic myself, but if we lose here it is just one set back. A big one, but just one battle in a bigger war.

We need to start fighting the crap that’s going on, we need to “play dirty,” here’s one of my “evil” plans:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2698298/posts

>The problem here was, in my opinion, the way this was done allowed the unions/lefties/hippies a lot of time to get very organized and energized.

That’s one of the problems of the “conservative” mindset: we have an abnormal faith in “the system” and playing by the rules (though not using the rules [”ruthlessly”] to our full advantage).

>Personally I wish Walker and the GOP had passed repair bill the way the ultimately did within days of the fleebaggers leaving.

Personally, I wish that he’d have issued Writs of Election, which the WI Constitution allows him to do when vacancies arise in the Legislature. {Art 4, Sec 14; IIRC}
Then the Democrats would likely take to the Courts and argue that fleeing the state *wasn’t* vacating their seats.

>Oh well, what’s done is done. I think most pundits expect Prosser to lose, so if we win it will be monumental victory.

Perhaps.
Though I think we’ve been lulled into setting the bar quite low for the qualifier of “monumental.”

Yep. And the pubs and conservatives will sit there and take it just like they always do, instead of taking over the state supreme court with a sit-in and start bashing some thug heads the way we should.

They take advantage of us law-abiding citizens in the same way the terrorists take advantage of our open society and constitution to wreak their havoc and evil on our country.

That’s the best news I’ve seen in 48 years. That’s when I found out my girlfriend was not in a family way.

Waukesha County is very conservative and we have a large voter turnout in important elections.

Well, consider this..... Prosser is leading Kloppenburg 78% to 22% in Waukesha County!

First time I've smiled all night!

Prosser leading with 52% with 9% in. Swingstate is saying he is over performing by 1.4% which is very good news.

Holding steady. I’m surprised that so many people would vote for an activist judge. What in the he** is wrong with people?
