Gableman wins Supreme Court race (Wisconsin now has conservative Supreme Court)

4-3 liberal majority becomes 4-3 conservative majority.

"It demeans the integrity of the judicial system."

[Luke21]

Liberals hate to lose judicial elections. It’s what they use to thwart the will of the people. So since they lost, the process had to be absolutely horrible.

And remember the process the libs used against Bork and Thomas? That wasn’t ugly to them. It was fun.

Gableman is still no Diane Sykes.

This is important, given the number of RKBA cases in Wisconsin. (Imagine, until a supreme court ruling, it was illegal to carry a concealed weapon in one’s own home.)

Works for me. Dane County must have not turned out. For once.

[Knute]

Couple this with a decisive Scott Walker victory for Milwaukee County Exec and April 1st was a promising day for our state!

Good news in WI, albeit uncomfortably close.

[Impy]

But Sandy Schumacher, 47, of Sun Prairie, said she voted for Butler because she particularly disliked Gableman's ads. "They're awful. They're absolutely reprehensible," she said. "It demeans the integrity of the judicial system."

Que?

[riverrunner]

Yes it is good news.

[Impy]

I see they got rid of the “Frankenstien Veto” too. That’s good although it was loads of fun.

[geezerwheezer]

Well said, fellow freeper, well said. Libs don’t know how to be gracious in any way, shape, or form, especially when they lose.

Good for Wisconsin> Now go elect a couple of conservative GOP Senators.

[marktwain]

Yes, it was closer than I would have liked. The libs outspent conservatives 2-1, but Butler was quite disliked. In a previous run for the court, butler was soundly defeated. He only made it there because Governor Doyle appointed him, directly against the will of the people.

Doyle is a Hilleresc type liberal, he is radically anti-gun.

[stevio]

Good news bump, for a change.

[marktwain]

Alright! Congrats! Now would be a good time for a gun rights case to make it to the Supreme Court.

A win is a win! And WI Republicans won on some VERY important matters yesterday.

Wa-Hoo! **Happy Dance** **Happy Dance** **Happy Dance**

Watch for all of the ‘Rat “Editorials” stating how we “stole” these elections, blah, blah, blah, before the end of the morning. But for now? Celebrate!

[Diana in Wisconsin]

You know, I’m really becoming CONVINCED that State Level politics is where it’s at.

We can’t get the Feds to move off of First Base in our favor on ANY issue (personal & property rights, gun rights, closing our borders & booting out the illegals, religious freedom, high court issues, etc.) but if we all work on our local and state elections, we just might turn this ship around! :)

This was the first time an Incumbent on the WISC was bumped off in FORTY YEARS! Now THAT’S a VICTORY! :)

Hats off to Mark Walker, too. He’s my choice for Governor come 2010! (I wanted him last time around; we went with a weak-tit like Mark Green...now “State Ambassador to Third World Bumpkinville,” LOL!

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Oops! SCOTT Walker, Duh! ;)
