THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE !

Neither of us are fools, are we, RRR? (0.00 / 0)

Since you claim that "WI loves Walker," would you care to note how much outside-the-state-cash loved Walker?

I'm not going to suggest that money was everything--there were any number of factors in play. But you're a player--you're not so naive as to believe, nor so unkind as to think of me as so naive to believe, that democracy remains untarnished by the boatloads of cash Walker's very well off friends poured into this?

Your run of the mill douchebaggery notwithstanding, as for Occupy--this was failure on the part of the Democratic Party and the unions.

Yeah I never really bought into the argument that people are dumb and with enough $$ you can sway the ignorant masses. (0.00 / 0)

It all a bunch of BS.  If Mitt Romney out spends Obama 100 to 1 this election season would you be suckered?

WI was flooded with corporate $$, Astroturf and National news outlets for the last year leading into this recall. At the end of the day the people of WI were the only ones allowed to vote and the results were identical to the first election back in 2010.  All that noise was just a big waste of time.  My run of the mill douchebaggery notwithstanding ; )

So if money really is the roadmap to win elections (it isn't BTW) we would have seen both sides double down.
