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.

There is a big element of this in the Paul supporters on the republican side. While Paul’s stance on some things (like, say, Iranian nukes) is seen as crazy by many (put me in that category), we as conservatives really have a lot of common ground with his stances, and it is because of his spending and fiscal responsibility stances that many of his young supporters are with him. Smart young people realize they are the ones who will be left holding the bag when the vote-buying deficit-spending merry go round stops, and they want to limit the damage. Paul’s approach in this area makes sense to them, and I have to agree. He has been the only guy preaching fiscal sanity consistently for a long time.
