Photo from Barrett's Victory Party last night

The photo came from this Boston Herald article: Analysis: Unions take a big hit in Walker’s win.

A quote from that article:

......that a victory for Walker would mean that more politicians around the country would be emboldened to take on public-sector unions. “It will give some other governors a dose of bravery,” Duffy said.

Yeah! We need a lot of GOP Governors who will prove to be worthy heirs of Teddy's Big Stick policy.

Another good quote from that Boston Herald article:

Marty Beil, executive director of the Wisconsin State Employees Union, ..... "We aren’t going to go away," Beil said. "We’re not going to pull a blanket over our head and pee in our pajamas."

And note these two historic firsts:

• First governor in history to survive a recall election.
• Over 50 years ago, Wisconsin was the "historic first" state to give major bargaining rights to public sector unions. But from now on, that record book entry is going to have a big fat asterisk next to it. Guess you could call it an "un-first"?
