which brain dead leftist is hosting?? i made the mistake of watching two minutes of rachel maddow last night- she was talking about the S&P downgrade- three minutes in she said it was politically motivated and only ONE party was guilty of politicizing the possibility of default- she then showed a ten second clip of mcconnell....

i turned the channel and understood why the twelve people that watch that station are the dumbest on the face of the earth....

It looks like Repub districts have finally smartened up. Waukesha is holding their totals until the rest of Milwaukee comes in so the Dems can’t “find” votes at the end to turn a miraculous victory - Hang tough Waukesha!

I bought a bottle of that today - we were having German breakfast for dinner. Brotchen, leberwurst, boiled eggs...

The dang stuff is expensive! And I am allergic to everything in it - but my wife likes it. ;)

First time I have been in a grocery store in years.

Wispolitics: “Though Pasch has held a lead in returns reported by the media, CERS executive director John Hogan says numbers Republicans have collected suggest the incumbent will win. That would preserve the GOP’s majority in the state Senate at 17-16, compared to 19-14 going into tonight’s recall elections. “

It’s good general advice. Palin-esque.

MSNBC is pathetic....I am so pissed at their coverage. I know I shouldn’t be, but the obese retard Ed is basically giving the Democrats a free show for the past 2 hours!

No one Republican guest...how does Comcast management allow them to get away with this crap. He’s had democrat after democrat on his show... embarrassing.
