Great job by Gov. Walker and the conservatives in Wisconsin.

Not a good night for government unions. Most people do not support the exorbitant benefits and generous retirement plans which are bankrupting the states on the backs of the taxpayers.

Shot across the bow of the Dims and the POTUS.

Generically, the reelection of the POTUS is no longer a nearly sure thing, the Democratic party has got to realize that they do not enjoy overwhelming popular support, are going to have to spend huge amounts of money in states they thought were safe, and the Congresscritters who are not representing their constituents better realize they are on notice. If this continues to go off like 2010, we could see both houses and the presidency Republican dominated.

If you thought there was mudslinging, government endorsed voter fraud, and class warfare already, you ain't seen nothing yet. As long as Hillary stays out of it, things are looking pretty good.

Well done, Wisconsin.
