Today is a historic day for Wisconsin.....and America.

[AverageJoe90]

Well, ladies and gentlemen.....today will be a historic day. Tom Barrett is facing an uphill battle that may indeed be lost....or we may win in a landslide, hands down.

Regardless of the outcome, we must redouble our efforts against the tyranny that is threatening to stamp us into the ground all over again. We've seen what's happened already; the War on Women, the Patriot Act & its successors, SOPA/PIPA/CISPA/etc., the miserable failure in Iraq, the rise of the Tea Party(or TeCIA CoIntelParty, as I like to call them nowadays). the accelerated destruction of unions, the Crash of '08, etc.
With a Romney Presidency, things will only likely get worse. What scares me most about this scenario is if we end up seeing more unpatriotic traitors in the Supreme Court, like that fucking scumbag Scalia, we could be held back for maybe another decade or more even if Romney gets booted out after his first term.

There is still hope, however, as many have woken up to reality and people continue to become ever more active. And there are opprotunities to make things work out in our favor no matter who wins in the Badger State today. Today will be the true start, I feel, of the battle to save America.
Now is the time to realize our full potential. Do whatever you can to spread the word and help bring more people to our side. I know I will do everything I possibly can to help ensure an Obama victory in 2012.

On, Wisconsin!

And good luck to all you good people out there today. =)

1. The executive election in WI isn't going to be in landslide territory that's in the bank.

And by landslide I mean a victory where the winner gets over 60% of the vote.

Some of the senate elections may produce clear majorities, but even there I don't expect landslide to be an adjective other than on Fox and its
affiliates.

Good luck from neighboring Michigan! We're watching!

3. "How many times can

a man turn his head, and pretend that he just doesn't see?"
Darn, that old 60's era song fits once more?

May the Creator of this baby blue planet be with Wisonsin and ALL of U.S. today!
Of course it must be clarified, I'm not real sure the Creator I pray to is the same one the conservative christian right prays to. Which has always confused me...thankfully I can blame Marty Luther for my views, and the reason that works so well is Marty's sense of humor during his fiasco. Laughter, the Best defense and ally for HOPE.

Although we may be in greater numbers, the fear is that Citizens United will lessen the relevance of we mere humans, since our "speech" isn't solely monies. Can't you just see us all dusting off those old Union songs, relearning the words and the chorus? Oh GROAN! Still we had to have felt some twinge when the Union busting got strong, ya recall the time just before "Greed is Good" became the mantra of some.

"On Wisconsin". UFFDA! Get that VOTE out, be sure there's one praying in the Ozarks on the MO-ARK border.
