Why are we having these stupid recalls at all? Oh, I know, the Dems must always have their way. Even when they’re damn ignorant.

Why is Milwaukee county always late with counting the ballots? That is were most of the fraud comes from.

You answered your own question -- they need to know how many votes to gin up before doing so...

Whitefish Bay used to be a nice conservative village, now it’s Pasch-central.

No, Kapanke is the GOP incumbent in Senate district 32. He is the one GOP incumbent expected to lose. LaCrosse is just bad news.

OMG, if Kapanke wins it will be a real slap at the unions. Heck, even if he loses by a small margin it will be a major slap.

If the election actually went Kapanke’s way (which honestly has no chance) it would be the utter destruction of the Progressive movement and the unions in WI.

A guy can dream can’t he? ;)

Thought you two might like a bit of levity that has nothing to do with the election.

Winning 5 of the 6 tonight would be HUGE. 6 of 6 would be astounding and the unions would have thrown their money down the sewer.

I remain cautiously optimistic.

Dan Kapanke is one of the most decent, conscientious and affable politicians I’ve ever come across in WI politics. He truly deserves to win this.
