Oh, thank G_D. I thought it was me.
It’s just a jump to the left...
The FR clock is right on time. Everyone else’s clocks are off.
Beer would knock me out right now. Instead I’m eating chocolate frosting straight from the spoon :-p. When I get stressed I turn to chocolate and that’s the only chocolate I have at the house right now that’s easily available.
Clocks been off for ages. The future really is ‘now’.
SykesCharlie Charles Sykes @McCormackJohn: In 2008, Darling had 5,000 vote margin in now-unreported Waukesha j.mp/qMCD1s
POINT TO PONDER:
Mandatory Union Dues from government paychecks STOP next month.
After this 30 Million Dollar debacle, how do Unions and the liberal whackjobs intend to finance THE GREAT RECALL! of Scott Walker??
Did the updates stop? nothing in the last 5 minutes?
23:34 as of now - wait for me ... I will be right there ...
3 precincts to count, Hopper behind by 2%.
It’s all up to the incompetent Kathy Nickolaus right now. She’s the one who failed to enter Brookfield’s election night results and caused the Prosser Kloppenburg recount.
Looks like Hopper just lost...
Great news, the Gunowners of Wisconsin need to turn out big next week too, Gov Walker and the Republicans have allowed people of Wisconsin to not only keep but bear their arms. Also, saving the state and localities lots of money and improved their fiscal health unlike most of the Pubs in Washington that cut deals with Dems.
I’m waiting. Come on GOP!
Sanity wins in Wisconsin. Oh happy night divine!

I have some M&Ms, but I am afraid to break into them now. I might not stop, and it is one of those ginormous bags from Costco. LOL.
SykesCharlie Charles Sykes @Schneider_CM: Alberta Darling is going to win. And if current trends hold, it will be with about 52% of the vote. #wirecall

It will have to be national money because most of WI public union members will now be able to not join the union :)
