Except for having to fight like dogs to keep your seats next month in unprecedented recall elections initiated by your very angry electorate, furious at what you've done to them

IL unions do not have a vote. For the most part the very angry, furious people were not part of the electorate, rather they were bused in from Chicago or had a day off of classes at UMAD. Don't believe everything you read.

Will be out on the lake this afternoon and I don't expect to see a single angry-furious person, but we'll see.

But those allegedly "bussed in" people that you are making up were not the ones that signed - far in excess of the numerical requirements, and quickly - the petitions necessary for the recall.

Those were indeed angry, furious Wisconsin citizens.

You know, like the ones that demonstrated at the capital last night, and are set up in the Walker Tent City outside?

So yeah, Dell, wish your Republican representatives a "good vacation". They are desperately putting up fake Democratic candidates in the elections to try and force runoffs, so they can campaign for forgiveness another month before they are kicked out for unacceptable performance.

If your referring to the half dozen people present at the vote, they were lost after a night on Water St and were looking for a bathroom

Good op-ed on current political situation in Wisconsin

Cool Kloppenberg recount cost a half a million dollars!

The recount of supreme court cost the tax payers of wisconsin half million dollars. But yet don't hear you bitch about that. You talk about union as though they are so great, they aren't. Its time people give walker and republicans props for trying to get the state deficit in order instead of keep burying our heads in the ground. Maybe obama and the rest of washington can learn this too. Quit spending money like its monopoly money! It doesn't work! As for the recall, i wonder how much money that will cost! In the end wisconsin will be fine and the protesters can no longer lock themselves to capitol rails with bike locks! Good job walker!
