The sense that I get is after 2010 the Tea Party took a victory lap and relaxed. In my town a democrat won a seat on the Township Committee for the first time in years. The democrats at the local level used scare tactics galore just as at the national level and in Ohio.

No more victory laps my friends. If we are going to beat Obama and beat the dem hordes back next year, we need to replicate the energy of last year. Hopefully, these off year elections will serve as a wake up call. You can sure bet that the dems will try to use them to serve as a rallying call. They will be busy blaming Republicans for anything and everything for the next year.

I know Kasich and Walker talk, but what was different here in WI was the gov didn't include police or firefighters. Perhaps it was too big. Now, Kasich should break it down into small parts. Start with the teachers union. The numbers are coming in. So far, we've saved something like 700 million AFTER getting rid of the 3.6 billion dollar debt. Good luck to you guys.

I heard the Ohio talkers were for this issue 2. Is that correct? If so, you guys need to set them straight. Seriously, research WI and send the legislature and Gov and the talkers stories of our successes.
