UM, did you watch the video at the 13:30 mark? It was a Democrat canvasser that verified the results in Prosser's favor with no objections.

Smells like conservative victory in Wisconsin.

It isn't over until Kloppenburg says it's over . I have to wonder why her concession speech has not come as quickly as her victory speech .

speechlesstx · Apr 18, 2011, 06:59 AM

Yeah, she declared victory with a 204 vote lead but won't concede a margin of 7,316. Hey, it worked for Franken, she'll just have to come up with 10 times the extra votes as he did.

Kloppenburg demanded her recount even though she's down 7000 votes. Watch her answer when a reporter asks her, “do you still feel that you are the winner of the election?” The question is at about 1:40. Gold I tell you, pure gold in that answer.

Is that why democrats have gotten enough signatures for a recall vote on 6 republicans, LAWFULLY I might add, while the republicans are getting folks drunk to sign the recall petition for the democrats who fled the state??

And still haven't got enough.

Getting folks drunk? Haven't heard that, but I do know the unions are still there behind those LAWFUL signatures.

Its LOCAL unions doing the heavy lifting of signatures for the recall petition. Both Republicans, and Democrats, old, and young working against the Governor, and his far reaching plot to corporatize Wisconsin. The same as they are doing in Michigan, and Ohio.

We wouldn't even have this issue if he had stuck with doing his job, and not promoting his agenda.

Municipal League discusses Snyder's plan for Michigan | detnews.com | The Detroit News

Doug Rothwell, president and CEO of Business Leaders for Michigan, and Charlie Owens, Michigan state director of the National Federation of Independent Business, defended Snyder's plan for a $1.8 billion tax cut to businesses to be paid for with cuts in revenue sharing to municipalities, as well as a new pension tax and elimination of most personal and business tax credits including the Earned Income Tax Credit for the working poor

Sound familiar? If municipalities cannot meet his new budget benchmarks after the cuts, he comes in and appoints a new manager that can, and cancels the mayors, and city counsels (eliminate local elected government), now in the past these corporate guys have worked with elected government, NOT in place of it.

Now stop and think how they will balance local budgets, with less money coming in?? Let me know!!

LT Guv Gain Newsome of California recently went to Texas ;a state he despises ;to find out why jobs are leaving California to Texas.
Capitol Journal: Gavin Newsom treks to Texas to talk jobs - Los Angeles Times
Texas has added 165,000 jobs during the last three years.California has lost 1.2 million. California's jobless rate is 12%... 8% in Texas.

But it's no secret why. Taxes are lower for business.
There is neither 'progressive' income tax system nor a large tax burden.There is less red tape regulations ,and there is an overall better business environment .
Texas has a budget deficit. But they will grow the economy out of it without raising taxes.

Oh yeah ;and Texas has a generally low obligation to public service employee entitlements.

The AFL-CIO and MoveOn have a heavy hand in the recall petitions. Now again, what's this about getting people drunk to get their signature?

We wouldn't even have this issue if he had stuck with doing his job, and not promoting his agenda.

Doing what he said would do if elected? If people were shocked by that why did they vote for him?
