State here "went" for Obama, and Gov. had been waiting to see how election panned out as to whether and how much push-back would be needed for the so-called ObamaCare mandates that are to be driven down to the states. I say so-called because, like many other things, states have been known to successfully tell G to pound sand if they're willing to accept that some carrot is taken away. (We did it here with the light-rail welfare boondoggle.)
The interesting thing that happened up here (my county is already probably the 'reddest' in the state) is that - while O got votes and the idiots are sending Tammy Baldwin to the Senate as a pox on you all - Gov. Walker now has BOTH houses of the state legislature.
As you allude, this could get sporty.
