Now that the election is over, they are forecasting ANOTHER massive state budget shortfall...
The response will undoubtedly be to absolutely savage the UW System and public education (again). And more tax cuts, of course, but those will be timed to coincide with Walker's re-election bid in 2018. Not a problem, though, because we need lots of welders (not English professors) and you can just send your K-12 kids to private voucher schools.

3. I'd like to reserve judgement until an audit is performed.
Something doesn't seem right.

5. That's fine, but any way you slice it we got our clock cleaned again.
There's no way all the state-level losses can be seen as anything other than a thorough drubbing. A strategy change is in order. It's time to stop basically focusing solely on turning out Milwaukee and Dane counties and ignoring the rest of the state.

4. Shock Doctrine, state by state - going national soon!
I simply don't understand how supposedly smart people can look at KS, LA, WI, NC & think that republican rule is good - that we want this on a national level. WTF???? I guess people are just more stupid than I thought.

6. People vote on emotion.
They feel left behind, and want to burn the whole mutherfucker down.
It's a political primal scream. |
