Any Democrat is better than Walker. He must be removed.

We could avoid all this crap they day we put an independent in the Governor’s office that won’t be a coward and be subject to the party line like democrats and republicans are. When that day dose come Wisconsin will be better than we are now. Because it seems to me the only time democrats and republicans care is when there is an election around where as independents answer to the people and not there party because independents know the people of Wisconsin run the state and not the politicians. Problem with democrats and republicans they seem to forget that at times and that is why we have things like this recall because of the bickering and arguing that goes on. Until that day comes and we elect an independent as Governor I will be a minority of one because everyone else is afraid to vote that way.

feduptaxpayer said, "Litkeep - I have just placed your name on the nomination list to be president of the rachael madcow fan club. If elected, you will get an authenticated replica of the infamous nancy pelosersi mega gavel to be used at all fan club meetings."

Fedup, that "infamous nancy pelosersi mega gavel" that you're thinking of is actual John Boehner's mega gavel. 95% chance that he cried the first time he saw it. And I'm not sure exactly who nancy pelosersi is. Done.

WisconsinResident: Good post but the chance of seeing a true independent in the governor office or in the oval office are less than those of me capturing a unicorn. Rockford is unique in that they have elected and re-elected an independent mayor. Wish other cities, states, etc. would follow suit. Used to be that Republicans would run far right and Democrats run far left to win primaries and then drift back to the middle for general election and to govern. They no longer seem to know where the middle is. Both sides would do well to learn some lessons from both Reagan and Clinton.

There you have it democracy at its best I’ll be so glad when this recall is done an over with what a waste of money. I hope it was worth it that is what you get for electing the wrong candidate.

FUTPER Didn't mean to bust your bubble, hope you didn't break out the tabs on your video to rush. PS I'am already a member, I like what she likes!

If Walker is so great then why are we even having this recall in the first place. remember I am not a republican or a democrat and i did not ask for a recall everyone else did. This is the kind of politics i can't stand and have no tolerance for were suposed to be working together and were not we have not for better than 20 years now and we need to change that and start working together or Wisconsin will self-destruct. This is why I hate democrats and republicans they refuse to work together it's about the party lines this lies the name calling and the running away from their resposibilities that has created this mess. In my opinion I think the time has come for republicans and democrats to step aside or Wisconsin will self-destruct

No FUTPER I'am a rush fan ( he really is a union member) knows how to sweet talk the ladies. I can understand why he wanted the liberal woman to send him videos, would you want some dried up old conservative lady sending videos?

Wisconsin clerks are not competent enough to follow the deadlines for sending ballots to military overseas.
Time to defund the GAB for not doing the job they are supposed to be doing.

Still amazes me that the dems had no end game in their recall efforts. What is the point if you don’t have someone who can beat him lined up to run? Almost seems they are so stupid they thought Walker would be taken out of office when the signatures were turned in and the liberal fairy would appoint a new Governor.

Good one officer. Truth is funnier than fiction.

I RECALL

Mr. President replies I'll have an ice cold Budweiser, what are those fellows celebrating? They are celebrating moving up one rung on the social ladder. Theirs a new group at the bottom, they are called the tea party, kind of a racist lot, like to tell off colored jokes!

So why is RGA running attack ads against Barrett and Falk instead of singing Walker's praises?

Oh, yea..... I forgot.

Youll have to forgive Darlene(winklady) she spends her days on conservative websites , returns here and posts links to them and regurgitates talking points. Her posts always have links to Maciver, Heritage, Media Trakkkers , etc... as if they are legitimate non-biased websites. Similar to Verify the recall and others who say one thing and do another. Ask her about "cigarrettes for signatures" a scandal she tried to spread before it was a scandal, then left holding the bag when it was BS.
Heres a great one that shouldnt surprise anyone.

"...and me not being able to sing like Placido Domingo is a political conspiracy by the Republican Governors Association"-poobah@9:26pm

He he. I am glad these things are being brought out in the open. Everyone needs to know that the reason I am not as inventive and well off as Henry Ford is clearly the result of a conspiracy by the Republican National Committee.

Fair enough w-lady, do you or have you worked on Grothman's campaigns? Do you post based on talking points offered up by Grothman and the Repub agenda? If you do not, I apologize. If I'm wrong I again apologize and will not reference this again. I will however check with my friend, who also happens to be your friend. Politics can be so hurtful. Your consistent posts of Democrats bad, repub... good has run it's course. Myself and I hope the rest of the Badger state will measure these upcoming recalls based on the candidates record. After all this is not the Bears/Packers rivalry where people should just be cheering for their team. This Governor has hurt many every day people terribly. We now know Walkers record and who his puppet masters are. He will not get a second vote from me. Off topic, but I just read an interesting article of the Kock brothers and their business trading practices with Iran. One more reason to ask what our nations riches folks are trying to accomplish.

Where did I post about Grothman?

Some of you folks have totally lost your grip on reality.

"Remember Randy Hopper, the Republican state senator in Wisconsin who was recalled and defeated in 2011 — and later in the year was arrested and charged with drunk-driving? He and his lawyer are now presenting their defense in the trial: It’s all a political conspiracy by the unions." - TPM [ http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.co... ]

Of course it is...and me not being able to sing like Placido Domingo is a political conspiracy by the Republican Governors Association.

I love the add. It pales in contrast to the Governors cronies that possess child porn, steal from our fine veterans, not to mention Walkers 1st year in office. His record is the best thing going for the recall. A decrease in private sector jobs, an attack on public sector jobs. The only job the Gov is really worried about is his own. Scooper is the worst Governor in Wisconsin history and he accomplished this in a little over a year. The scariest part is Senator Grothman keeps spewing his propaganda and offering up bills attacking women's rights. It makes me wonder why Wislady is such a puppet for this guy. Really Wislady? why are you a poster for Grothman?

officerfriendly1 is only addressing the "commie libs".

That amounts to approximately .00000000000001 %.

So, all of the mainline libs are safe.

And yes, officerfriendly1 is indeed an asset for the recall Walker effort.

@coffeeman- Relax- we all know these types are insane. Let them rant- it appears to help the recall effort.

How dare you call libs communist. And you call yourself officerfriendly?? More like Officer hatred. I suggest removal.

I think so many people are aware of the outside groups thanks to citizens United, that ads like these will actually hurt thge governor. An elevator? With all of the money they have they should really hire some better producers, that ad was made to fool a 7 year old. (Darlene)

Ha, ha....it didn't take long (for someone who isn't running) to use RGA attack ad. Maybe he is trying to raise money for his trolley?

Barrett uses RGA attack ad to raise money

Democratic Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is using a new attack ad to raise money, but he's still not saying whether he will run against Republican Gov. Scott Walker in a recall election.

His fundraising plea came Friday after the Republican Governors Association launched a new 30-second television ad statewide that goes after Barrett's record on taxing and spending and Kathleen Falk's record as Dane County executive.

How a political ad works:
TV
Ad
Imbecile
Watch
Vote.

Barrett has been benefitting from the new laws Gov. Walker passed saving Milwaukee 25 million dollars so far. How is he going to spin that??

carsway-You might to want stop watching so much of that Fox channel and switch over to MSNBC.
I think it's taking all the fun out of the posts for you. I think you can tell a lying line from Fox now with your eyes closed. Falk is a good women who makes good cookies and stays pretty clean mostly and should definitely be made the next governor just for that. Obama should be made President for life because he has done more for the economy just by flying around campaigning for 3 years on just the jet fuel bill alone. My God man, just think if he could campaign for the next 25-30 years-nobody would have to work.
And Walker-Lock em up,throw away the key-who cares if he's guilty?

Panred said "Fear is the prime motivation that leads one to attack." That's a great line, too bad it's far from true. I know that because for almost two years Democrats have been attacking Scott Walker and surely we know they're not scared. We heard about the brave marchers and the brave petition signers. So maybe the line should be "Bravery is the prime motivation that leads one to attack". That fits much better with the Democratic party. If things aren't the we want em we're brave enough to change em one way or the other!

As I said earlier, internal polling is probably looking pretty bad for Democrats.

When Marquette pollsters asked, respondents were split right down the middle on changes to collective bargaining -- 48 percent were for them, 47 percent were against them. But there is a huge difference on whether state workers should pay more for pension and health benefits -- 74 percent favor them paying more, while 22 percent are opposed. Overall, half of respondents believe our state is headed in the right direction, while 46 percent don't.

DailyKos panicked today after Scott Walker appeared to beat every one of the potential candidates in the upcoming recall election.

"La Follette" is a name synonymous with the history of WI politics. We could use some more La Follette

The same pro walker jibberish It amazes me again how the FOX news puppets cannot see truth to their GOPs insane lies and corruption and Falk has in state money unlike your moron that is soon to be GONE
OBAMA 2012 And Scooter gone or in prison by the summers end.

At least The Republican Governors Association are supporting jobs...in advertising.

Really, how desparate do you have to be to start running negative adds against a guy who hasn't even declared he would run yet.

Fear is the prime motivation that leads one to attack. Obviously the Republicans are afraid of not only Ms. Falk but of Mr. Barrett as well and he hasn't declared whether he will run or not. I guess when you are that scared, you see non-existent adversaries everywhere. Actually Republicans have little choice but to attack. It’s difficult to spin their negative messaging in a positive manner.

The question if Tom B will run again tells me Falk is not doing well in internal polling. This tells me Walker will run away with the June re-election and the Dems are courting Barrett to get in. I hope he does as he was a major benefactor of Walker's programs.

Feduptaxpayer
Oh my Gosh you are too funny!!

winter-Just a small correction-That "solar" company really got over $500 million (I think $586 million but whats a few million among friends?) Surprised mousey didn't point that out. He's usually pretty quick correcting us right wingers.

Joy: You said it very well, maybe she will listen to you because they sure don't listen to me even though I have proven my points against them time and time again. But they think they know everything about everyone else when in fact they don't know squat.

Johnny, you should tell Mouse the truth about what s/he is babbling: Yes, some of us have somehow managed to save for our own retirement, in spite of also paying for the retirements of state employees. (S/he really is out there on that one....but gotta have something to prattle senselessly about, I guess.)

mouse says "johnny you have proved nothing, other than you hate the fact some people put money away for retirement and planned for a future, and you just......... yours away"!

Show me where I have Ever said anything like that??????? Fact is you CAN'T!!!!!!!! Yet again you show your intelligence or the lack of! Now be a good rodent and crawl back into your dark little hole until you grow up.

I hope Barret does run again so he can lose again to Walker!

RGA, Hey Walker, isn't that out of state money?

Falk is getting 87% of her money from out of state. Do you have a beef with that?

And to address mouse's other comment of Walker running scared from the unknown in running the Barrett ad, what would you like to comment on Obama's attack ad against Sarah Palin? Talk about scared to death of someone who isn't running for office.

No mouse and I have proven all of my points more than once. You're just too ignorant to see it.

See I told you all this would happen and I was right. Now wait till they attack Falk for the way Dane County handled the 911 call from Brittany Zimmerman on April 2, 2008 and they go into why Falk really resigned as Dane County Exe. That will be the next thing that happens. This is the reason I do not like democrats or republicans because of this kind of bickering and arguing that I am talking about and were about to watch Wisconsin Self-destruct you watch what a pity an independent don’t run. Because in my opinion I think it’s time for republicans and democrats to step aside and go quiet into that good night. That would be the best thing for Wisconsin is to have a Governor that would not be subject to the party line and actually represent the people and not his party or any hidden agenda

jvlhomwownwer - I think the Repubs are attacking the only viable candidate that could beat Walker. Falk is a joke and everyone outside of Madison knows it.

A room full of monkeys with typewriters
might not produce "Hamlet" in 100 years,
but at least they have yielded
some pro-walker and anti-Obama comments
that could be used in these blogs.

I was wondering how long a story focused on a STATE political situation, would last until someone dragged in the President, and an unrelated situation. It seems the "regular" posters can never stay with the subject matter.....

It seems to me that if they are attacking a man who has not even declared that he will run... the Repubs are scared that their boy might loose....

WEAC is going to be all confused if Barrett jumps in

RGA, Hey Walker, isn't that out of state money?

winter: Take it from me arguing with mouse is like having a boxing match with someone that has no hands.

@Mouse - That's not taxpayer's money. Leave it to a liberal to make stuff up.
