So WI is no longer a national election since...

the dems are winning (GO WISCONSIN)


And here lies the first battle and probably the first victory... take heed people.

Of course as Rachel points out, perhaps OUR national party really does not care about us, the base.

3. little known facts about grover...

the republicans where i live ran him out of town over a dispute over the reagan home..if i remember correctly he was trying to stick them with the bill on the home. someone made a call and the home was purchased by the feds to bail out the backers out. the republicans in the statehouse told grover his brand of politics would`t play well in illinois . of course that has changed with the koch bros funding the tea party.

another interesting thing here is the purchase of the high school he went to. the school was used up till the late 50`s then shut down and used for the school administration.later it sat empty until reagan mania hit town.a very wealthy family bought the school and sunk close to 14 million dollars into rebuilding it as a reagan museum. now it`s part of the smithsonian.

it`s really interesting how all those republican were bailed out by the big bad government......
