Got an idea.

Why don't we have the 2010 election all over again?

Then, we'd see how many Democrats were left among the ruins...

State law prohibits anyone from recalling elected officials until they have held office for at least a year. That means, despite all the talk among Madison protesters, Walker cannot be the subject of a recall election for nearly another year. The same holds true for all the members of the state Assembly and half of the state senators.

One prominent Democrat told No Quarter that national labor leaders are deeply involved in planning the recall elections against Senate Republicans - even though national and local labor officials disputed this.

Typical JS reporting. Think there might be a Senate Dem or two in office for a year?

BTW, it’s my understanding that recall efforts are beginning against dem senatore in Eagle River and Kenosha.

Recalls are typically bad option. Liberals have typically more time (conservatives have to work and care for family) so they would be happy to have elections every month.

Targeting? Isn’t that dangerous hate speech?

I think an increasing number of parents are getting pissed off as their kids are home from school due to teachers rioting in Madison.

Wisconsin Tea Party organizations should take the opportunity to focus that anger in the upcoming April 5 2011 judicial elections. Tea Party organizations and Republicans (have little hope in the latter) should spend the next 6 weeks highlighting the judges that are backed by the education establishment.

The Republicans are there ready to work. Where are the Democrats? This is one of the Lefts tricks. Use what is right and good and apply it to themselves. They do this all the time. It’s designed to stop anyone that does not agree with them.

Just ignore them and continue the good fight.

History repeats itself: The Gang of 14 in the US Senate morphs into The Gang of 14 in the WI Senate.

Won’t be long before the make up days will cut into teachers vacations.
