1. It's going to take a commitment to hold that thought til Jan 2012

Just so there is no misunderstanding about why nothing will seem to be happening.

2. Change can happen now

Enough legislative Repugs are eligible for recall that would throw the legislature back into Democratic hands.

[Tempest]

4. Not a Wisconsin resident, but this a$$hat Walker can't be recalled fast enough

There likely won't be much of a problem assembling the 500K signatures for the recall.

Let them play. They aren't changing anything here.

[Drale]

14. Probably a tea bagging troll

[FreakinDJ]

15. I like the Badger

[Renew Deal]

10. I don't support recalls

I think that people should serve the term they were elected for (except for cases of criminality, advancement, etc.).

[Lefta Dissenter]

16. Thanks for the response

:hi: (even though I disagree with you 100%)

17. No problem

But I'm not the one who voted no.

[Taverner]

12. Where is the "Hell Yeah!" option?

[SoCalDem]

13. Not a likely outcome. The best that can happen is for the dems in the legislature

to do the best they can at stalling, and be as LOUD as possible about the injustices, and when it's time to elect new people, get out there and remind people of all they have lost, and tell them how to get it back..

When we got stuck with Issa's phony recall shit and ended up with Ahhhhnold, it did not happen overnight, and it took a long time to play out since people were stupid enough to re-elect him..

Elections have consequences..it's just that simple.

If the dems stayed away in droves last time around, and allowed this goofball to win, and for Feingold to be defeated, then this is what everyone ends up with until enough people get pissed off enough to throw them out & start all over..

"This is why we can't have nice things", folks.. we have a pinball approach to elections, and are always careening around ..bouncing from one flipper to another.

One leader sets up long-range plans for this or that, and the next one in cancels it & give the money to his pals..and then the next one comes in & re-starts the other thing and now it costs 10x more, and then the people get pissed & vote in another wacko..rinse repeat..
