Something that does concern me about the elections here next Tuesday...
The republicans' habit of running to the courts to contest elections.

I expect that there will be one or two races where the republican will lose by a close margin, and the republican will run stright to the courts.

1. Keep fighting them then, for as long as it takes.
We have to be as stubborn as they are.

Al Franken could have walked away. He hung in there, and got his Senate seat, even if he did get it late.

These people will do enough of this, and the public will get sick of it. They will tune them out after awhile, and stop voting for them.

I think the time is getting closer.

2. And then we fight them, we fight some more and recall Walker as soon as he is up...
No amount of apology will ever be enough to stop us, you don't accidentally take away people bargaining rights. Fuck him and the Koch brothers, to hell with all the political parties. This is about Badgers, united Badgers, all of us!!!

3. At this rate, all we are going to be able to offer up is a shit sandwich for filing answer fees.
