Scott Walker is going to lose

[malaise]

I can't wait

[City Lights]

1. I do hope you are correct!

[calimary]

103. So do I. I'm still thunderstruck that he's been able to survive despite all the efforts,

and some of them well-organized, to remove him. They had a chance a few years back and blew it.

WHY does this individual get ANY votes at all? What goes on, Wisconsin? WTF do you see in this guy???

[Stellar]

2. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy!

[Jack Rabbit]

40. He's not a guy . . .

A "guy" is a human being who has a mind of his own.

Walker is a Koch whore.

[Stellar]

54. Oops...my bad.

I totally agree.

[still_one]

3. one would think people have learned their lesson

[TerrapinFlyer]

4. Of all the races, I want Walker to lose the most.

End his political career now.

[CTyankee]

9. I know. That POS tried to ruin a great state...

disgusting creep...

[MFM008]

11. yes

but Skeletor Scott is pretty bad.

[Aerows]

94. I agree

I can't decide which one I want to lose the most, Skeletor or the Koch Dummy.

[still_one]

101. It would be nice to see McConnell go down inflames

[Bettie]

5. Oh, I hope so..

That and Joni Ernst getting sent back to the hole she came out of are my greatest wishes this election season.

[a kennedy]

72. and I'm waiting for turtle man to be disposed of also.

[Bettie]

91. Yeah, I'd like to see him retreat into

his turtle tunnel forever.

[femmocrat]

6. Ed Shultz is doing a lengthy interview with Mary Burke.

Hope she smacks the hell out of Walker.

[CTyankee]

7. oooh! That gave me a thrill down my spine!

Whatta great thought to groove on!

[DocMac]

38. Several species of fury animals

Pink Floyd

[jmondine]

84. Including the Majestic Moose

[bigwillq]

8. I hope so (nt)

[PeaceNikki]

10. I live in the deep red of Wisconsin and am hopeful

but not as confident as you.

[HereSince1628]

15. I'm not confident, but my favorite beer is the same as one she favors

Spotted Cow, from New Glarus Brewing.

It took months but I finally found something I -really- feel strongly positive about her.

[PeaceNikki]

18. I feel strongly positive that she's not Walker.

The party is doing well rallying in Dane and Milwaukee counties, I really hope we can pull this off.

Ugh. Nervous wreck.

[HereSince1628]

21. I'm a bit concerned she's Rahm Emmanuel...My photo ID is clipped to a spring clothespin

looks like I've got all my election-day necessities ready.

[PeaceNikki]

23. Not as charming.

At least Rahm has some evil genius type charisma.

[HereSince1628]

25. I heard he went to Sarah Lawerance College, where even the squirrels where black

and that was WAY before GOTH.

[PeaceNikki]

27. .

[Raine1967]

28. IF it makes you feel better, Think Virginia.

WE had a hella nail biting time here during our last go-round. We ended up electing Mcauliffe, Northrop and Herring -- the big three in the state politics are all Dem here now.

We were always cautiously optimistic in Virginia during that election. Good Luck to you all in Wisconsin!

[PeaceNikki]

30. Thanks, I'll do that.

It's been heartbreaking to watch my state fall so far from its roots.

[Lifelong Protester]

62. PLEASEOPLEASEOPLEASE!

I am cautiously optimistic, too. I cannot stand to see what has happened to our state. As you probably know, I am in education. And teetering on the edge of retirement...

[mopinko]

26. hold on. i'm comin.

will be in wausau for gotv the last 4 days.
chompin at the bit.

and yes, rahm does have evil genius charisma. and i, apparently only i, think he is doing a pretty good job. makin the hard choices like smart dems do.

[PeaceNikki]

32. Thanks for your work here in Wisconsin, mo!

Rahm cracks me up and I'd take him over Walker any day. I especially relate to his fucking foul mouth.

[mopinko]

63. yeah, when karen lewis called a strike and made a stink, because rahm said fuck you

i knew who the grown up in the room was.

sorry our paths wont cross, but i have a nephew in white folks bay who has promised to put in some hours. if he doesnt make the trip to wausau, imma send him to you.

[freshwest]

49. He freaks the Repugnant Party, that's for sure.

[bettyellen]

52. hmm, I was trying to pick a race to do 4 hours of GOTV calls for on election day, maybe.....

I'll ask you to hook me up with a call list?

[mopinko]

61. send a pm to du'er kelly westlund

if she wins, mary burke wins.
and the head waters of lake superior stay pristine.

if you dont get a quick response, pm me.

that goes for anybody else who would like to spit in the cock brother's eye.

[bettyellen]

66. well thank you for the tip, mopinko!

[Worried senior]

86. I live in the deep red of WI

too and I am very fearful.

Since we had such terrible results with the recall I don't know how I'm going to make it thru election day.

[PeaceNikki]

88. Yes, it's hard to be optimistic when we are surrounded 24/7 by teabagging sycophants.

People who aren't from here think that there's NO WAY PEOPLE SUPPORT THAT CREEP. Well, they do. A lot of them. You and I see, work, play, shop and talk with them every damn day.

[Worried senior]

90. Thats for sure

On the way to Marinette today saw quite a few I stand with Scott Walker signs and a couple of Mary Burke.

People especially in the Waukesha and surrounding areas also support him because they've got theirs and don't think anyone else should.

[PeaceNikki]

92. Yup, I'm on Waukesha County. We aren't the reddest in the state, even.

:/

I'm in Lake Country. It's rare to see Burke signs here. There is a house right on 83 in between 94 and 16 that always does it up good for Democrats. Otherwise it's mostly a huge sea of Walker here in Lake Country. Every once in a while I see a Democratic sticker or sign and I smile and wave..

[Worried senior]

95. My daughter lives

in Waukesha so when they were collecting signatures for the recall I managed to sign one on the sidewalk in front of Bed, Bath and Beyond in Brookfield.

I'm surprised the house you mentioned hasn't been egged.

We used to live in Grafton, you can imagine we were the exception to the rule with our Democratic signs. The mail lady agreed with us tho.

[PeaceNikki]

96. huh... I was actually collecting signatures there. For real! We might have met!

[Worried senior]

98. Maybe we did

if so Hi.

Small world isn't it.

[pa28]

12. I think he just might.

Could be one of those silver linings in an otherwise tough election day.

[TheCowsCameHome]

13. Scott Walker, Scott Brown, and Rick Scott

all have two things in common, besides being assholes.

Names, and they are going to lose.

[malaise]

55. Had the same thought - I thinkk you're correct

I hope Scott Walker ends up in prison

[The Great Escape]

78. Scott Free!

[totodeinhere]

108. Well you got one out of three. n/t

[LynneSin]

14. We are so panicked about the Senate we forgot about the Governor Races

I see Democrats picking up about 5-7 GOP held houses although one of those might just be us kicking out a GOP for an Independant/Democratic Hybrid ticket (Alaska).

[PeaceNikki]

19. Not all of us!!

In fact, we've been far more focused on that here in Wisconsin.

[jen63]

36. Unfortunately, in Ohio

not so much. That ass Kasich seems to be bulletproof for some reason. He's tried to fly under the radar since his public union debacle but, make no mistake, he's as bad as the Scott's.

[RoverSuswade]

48. Last night Brit Hume said there will be GOP pickups

in both Senate and Guvships. Of course he said that too in 1998 when he was with ABC. BTW, I saw a rerun of that SNL episode the other night. Laughed 'till I was sick.

[totodeinhere]

109. You saw wrong unfortunately. The GOP picked up gubernatorial seats. n/t

[mahina]

16. My favorite post of the day.

Wish I could rec it twice. What a pure POS. He stands naked before the voters.

[iandhr]

17. I am working for the WI Dem coordinated campaign

I am also extremely superstitious. Don't jinx it.

[PeaceNikki]

20. this ^

[CK_John]

22. I doubt it.

[DocMac]

39. Thomas doubts it too. nt

[RBInMaine]

68. What's wrong with you. Please, take your Debbie-Downerism elsewhere. Or take an upper.

[mopinko]

24. me and kelly westlund gonna drink his milkshake.

goin up for the last 4 days.
getting excited.

[Scuba]

29. Damn, I hope you're right malaise.

[Warpy]

33. He survived the recall only because people resented the process

even as they despised the man and his policies. They thought any duly elected thief should be able to steal for the full term and maybe they were correct, they allowed Walker enough rope to hang himself completely instead of allowing him to escape the noose and possibly run for other office.

Maybe the Koch boys could use another yes man in the business instead of in the government.

[PeaceNikki]

35. That was definitely a major factor. But a lot of Obama voters didn't show up.

We do great in general elections but we need to step it up in midterms and special elections. It's how we got Walker and lost Feingold.

[mopinko]

65. the party better be pointing you at the drop off voters.

they are doing that here. they are supposed to be doing it everywhere.
but i dont think kelly is getting the kind of help she deserves.

we will see on nov 4. i am bringing the party dress.

[riversedge]

76. been canvassing several times. We do get the drop off list...

But it is a mixed bag when talking to folks. Some days I am encouraged and some days I am not. I really do not know what kind of support Kelly gets from WI Dem Party. I have not ever received any literature to drop off for her--but have for others.

[Enthusiast]

34. I pray you are correct!

That would be a wonderful outcome.

[Greybnk48]

37. My dear, sweet Malaise.

I hope you are spot on--as usual! I can't wait either. If he does lose, join me on DU GD election night and we'll have a drink together!

[malaise]

56. I'd love to do that but I may be travelling

election night.

[Greybnk48]

60. Well, my husband and I will toast you! n/t

[rurallib]

41. Hope he does and I hope it is followed closely by a grand jury indictment.

[rustbeltvoice]

42. I want you to be right.

Walker's facial expression looks like a congenital idiot, he isn't the only one: Cotton from Arkansas, and Gowdy from S. Carolina too. As cosmetically conditioned a people as we are, and these buffoonish looking characters are elected. Then they open their mouths and they prove themselves as crazy as shit house rats, yet they have electoral success. I have not seen the Wisconsin advertising, i do not know why they do not just play the recording of Walker being absolutely obsequious to his master an impersonated Koch. It was a prank that the boot licking idiot fell for completely. But the fault is in the electorate when such a high degree of malicious stupidity and/or insanity is rewarded. These are individuals that a rational person could not trust to patch a tire, or pour a glass of milk; yet they mangle the lives of many.

[valerief]

43. Crushed would be even better.

[a kennedy]

74. would be the best to crush him, then no mistake whatsoever.....

no tricks in counting, or recounting.

[japple]

44. From your lips to the whole Universe!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MontyPow]

45. Either way a Republican will sit in the Governor's chair.

[RBInMaine]

67. TeaLeft nonsense. WAY outside the realm of reality.

[MontyPow]

69. Really? I didn't realize the leopard could change his spots in four years.

There is no TeaLeft. Only Democrats and BlueDogs. And you know what they say when you lie down with dogs.

[bluestateguy]

46. Burke is a better candidate than Barrett, I'll admit

But I remain unoptimistic.

[onecaliberal]

47. I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hope you are right.

[Half-Century Man]

50. Scott Walker get unemployment

Judge Randa gets impeached
Paul Ryan gets to stay home in Janesville forever.
Ron Johnson gets to move back in his mansion and yell at kids on his lawn
The Koch waste millions in Wisconsin

These are a few of my favorite things

Total wet dream material
The John Doe goes to trial. Walker and state conspirators get indited. Due to records kept, non-state conspirators are implicated. Evidence overwhelming, federal charges filed. Evidence gathered in federal investigation proves massive campaign finance violations. Evidence gathered in that investigation indicates large scale tax evasion. And then, things pick up steam.

[malaise]

59. I love this post

They will try to steal it again but it will not work.

[hue]

82. I'm w/malaise. ^^love this post!^^

Wow! Those are seriously my favorite fantasies as well! I'd love to see those dominoes fall.

When will even one of them actualize? Like Peace Nikki I'm afraid to get my hopes up, yet I admit I have a spark of hope...

[Liberal_in_LA]

51. really?

[Cleita]

53. Best news evah!

[spanone]

57. k&r...

[Initech]

58. He pretty much shot himself in the foot campaigning with Derp Dynasty.

At a fundrasier for a bigoted, corrupt charity I might add. Oh please let him lose!

[fadedrose]

64. I saw on MSNBC where Elizabeth Warren is campaigning against him....

Just what he needs, to have her beat him up again and she's not even in the race....

[AllyCat]

70. Doing my part by voting for Burke!

More doors this week.

[Myrina]

71. more like ... Scott Walker is going to cheat.

... and end up back in the Governor's office.

Our votes don't even matter anymore.

[PeaceNikki]

79. Our votes do matter, we need more Democrats to go to the polls, not fewer.

Your post implies they shouldn't and that's shit.

[malaise]

93. I dare him to try cheating again

He's been doing it from college days - this time he will be caught

[B Calm]

73. Has early voting started in Wisconsin?

[a kennedy]

75. Yes it started yesterday....

[deutsey]

77. Oh, please, oh, please, oh, please...n/t

[Hoppy]

80. Maybe one of the Koch brothers will give him a job in appreciation of his service.

Why, who amongst us doesn't recall the phone call he got from David Koch, praising him for stiffing the union members and their contract. That was about three years ag...'


Wait... my brother says the call wasn't actually from Koch but from a Democrat prankster.

W.T.F.. and all the time, I thought...

Damn.

[MBS]

81. please please please may you be correct

He's basically destroyed the state of Wisconsin.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

83. I did this prior to election day 2012...

[malaise]

85. Three Scotts will be blowing

Scott Brown, Rick Scott and Scott Walker

[glinda]

87. Will believe it when I see it.

Dirty rotten cheat, liar and wolf hater.

[totodeinhere]

89. The RCP average has it Walker +.4.

It's all going to come down to turnout but those who seem so sure that Walker is going to lose might be a bit too optimistic. It's too close to call and could go either way.

[ChiciB1]

97. I Agree Wit You...

Down is Up and Up is Down! Only when it's over will I BELIEVE!

[julio_maracas]

99. New poll

100. " " " " " n/t

[Gothmog]

102. I also hope that you are right

[maced666]

104. Yea he is!

One more week...

[maced666]

105. I really thought he would.

too.

[malaise]

106. Same here

I still can't believe people are this dumb

[totodeinhere]

107. It looks like you'll be waiting a while longer. n/t

[RandiFan1290]

110. Doing a victory lap?

[totodeinhere]

111. No I'm not, but I'm sick and tired of seeing so many people at DU looking at elections

through rose colored glasses. All of the indications were there that this would be a Republican sweep yet a lot of posters refused to believe it and predicted Dem wins that did not materialize. Wake up people. It's the real world out there.
