Thanks for starting the thread.
This election is critical for Wisconsin, as a liberal majority on the Supreme Court (if Prosser loses) would mean big trouble for all of Gov. Walkers reforms.
But it’s also critical nationally - because this is the first indication of where a narrowly divided state like Wisconsin will fall - with the union/hippie/protester/liberal/thugs? Or with the new conservative majority that swept into statewide victory last November?
If Prosser wins, Reid and Obama will cave on the budget this week. If Prosser loses, God help us.
How so? State supreme courts can just go around voiding legislation they don't like? If the law in question even gets there, won't the legislature just repass it ling before any election, recall or otherwise?
