Obozo was/ is terrified that this would be viewed as a referendum on him. well guess what, it is a complete repudiation of his asinine policies.

Wellllll, it’s time for the dimocraps to start another recall campaign against Governor Walker. They can keep rearranging the deck chairs until the cows come home. After all, why would the unions want to do any real work when they can continue to create turbulence throughout the state.

There was fear that a huge turnout would be bad for Walker. I didn't think so... simply because of the amount of votes Walker received in the primary. I thought this was a good omen.

I live in an area that has a huge democrat population, but the new registered voters that I saw yesterday, while voting, encouraged me greatly.

A sleeping giant has awoke.

Walker DID raise more out-of-State money than Barrett. However, he raised more IN-STATE money than Barrett’s in-State and out-of-State combined. This was referendum on Obama, Marxism, the Union Thugs, the Government Welfare Cheats, and Liberalism in General, and Wisconsin flipped them the collective bird.

The main Democrat excuse is that Wisconsin voters do not like to recall elected officials except for malfeasance in office.

I guess it is ok for the Democrats to continue in la-la land and ignore the real reasons why they lost.

Namely, the majority of voters have had enough of big government spending on lazy government workers of all kinds.

It will be interesting to see if other states follow suit, although I suspect that Walker’s courage is rare amongst his peers.

DON'T POP THE CHAMPAGNE CORKS JUST YET....

...cuz according to "Herr Schultz" Walker is about to do the "Perp Walk" any day now.

And that's the best the Far Left Moonbats on [PMS]NBC (to include "Mad Cow" Maddow) can come up with?

Toooo funny!!!

Their chins were all dragging on the floor last night as I channel surfed and their display of high dudgeon and denial was priceless.

Once again liberals are let down by Obama’s failure to act like a leader.

Any union that gives money to Obama after this debacle is insane.

Does the spending amount being compared contain the initial cost of the recall effort itself? I mean the petitioning effort to make it occur in the first place. After all, that was a focused anti-Walker event from start to finish and rightfully it should count. ALL the money spent, money to bus in 10’2 of thousands of union goons for each rally, money spent to pay canvassers to write in Mickey Mouse on recall petitions. Are they counting that?

Pathetic Union bosses

...the AFL-CIO wrote on Twitter that “Win or lose, Scott Walker has joined ignominious company in suffering the humiliation of a recall election. 3rd ever.”

...akin to celebrating that the other guy scraped his knuckles while pounding the hell out of you.

All I can think of is the waste of state funds all these recalls have produced and for very little change. Once they regain control of the Senate, the GOP should try to change the laws to make recalls more difficult and to pass a measure that requires the Democrats to repay the state for all the money wasted in this sloppy process.

If these thugs think they can bleed state coffers without consequence they’ll just be back at it again the next time.

Is there a pool on when the obligatory, “Well, Wisconsin is different and you can’t put much stock in any results from a state like that,” will be uttered and repeated by Carney and the low-ratings end of the media wing?

A 7-8% win translates to 4% of the voters changing sides. Not a terribly big margin. Still much work to do.
