Interesting article from wisconsin citizens' media cooperative regarding the upcoming Nov 4 Gubernatorial election, and other elections of the past several years....
Are Wisconsinites really so wishy-washy or schizophrenic as to swing back and forth every two years between the extremely diverse platforms and ideals of Obama and Walker, as recent election results might indicate? It seems unlikely, and such counter-intuitive electoral swings can also be red flags for election fraud.
...If they steal our vote, they steal our voice and they steal our power. Stand up and help change election systems in Wisconsin. This is not an issue of left vs right. Its right vs wrong.

(29,644 posts)Ugh.... on a mini vaca last weekend, and drove from Milwaukee to Fish Creek, and on EVERY corner wanker signs, in every farm field too. Just made the ride miserable when it should have been very enjoyable due to the beautiful fall colors. Was sick the whole trip.

By the way, when are we getting together with the Third Amiga for that drink? Right after the election, to celebrate?

(6,622 posts)2012 is one I'm willing to forget.
LOL to the viking war queen. Has she already landed here? It looks like it. Maybe we have to create our own emoticon for that.
And let's hope we're celebrating by this time next week! HA, oh wait. This is only Monday. OK, I was jumping the gun a bit. We'll celebrate 8 days from now.
