but Pasch (D) will probably be ~1800 votes short.

That's gotta hurt - it takes alot to get people to work for an election, and after all this ... FAILURE ...

Rachael and Ed can spin all they want, but at the end of the day, it looks like the GOP wins ...

Can’t listen to Ed any longer (I think I lasted for 4 minutes). How do “journalists” get away with this? Two state senators have suggested an investigation. It’s just TOOO coincidental that the same country clerk should be involved.

Yccccch.

$30 million dollars worth of union dues down the ‘RAThole. That’s a lot of money to throw at horsesh!t like this. I’m sorry. Union members are dumb.

Ed Schultz says “big money” can be defeated, is he talking about the Unions spending 30 million dollars?

One of my best friends went absolutely crazy after Walker won the election. He’s turned into a complete monomaniacal freak who can’t talk about anything except how evil Scott Walker is. It’s sad watching people get like this.

Seriously....I think if you would tell one of those types, "Hey, I see that Scott Walker has shoes just like yours" they would chew off their own feet.

All precincts are counted in the Discrict 2 and 10 race.

Darling up by almost 5K now and 3 precincts left between Waukesha and Ozaukee. Milwaukee and got enough in the bag to take that.
