That just won't fly with me. People in Wisconsin were educated about the reason for this recall. They came out in record numbers, and got 2x the number of signatures needed for this special election. The governor has the worst jobs record in the nation. Working people have been shut our of their state government at every level. The people knew what this is about, but we're supposed to believe that they came out in record numbers to vote for the new Wisconsinssippi status quo? Uh-uh... that doesn't pass the smell test.
