Why a win tonight In Wi would be a major game change

Democrats taking governor,LT Governor,and State Senate would be major game change

Money can't always gurante victory.Republicans outspending and a democratic victory will prove this.

Pollsters with their likely voter model got WI totally wrong.Their likely voter screens will have to be adjusted.

Republican Governors will have to start reconsdering their actions.Walker would show there can be consequenzes.

Those who keep saying walker would easily win will have egg on their faces.

Romney will not pick anyone from WI to be his VP

They all had walker up.marquette University had him up by 7.Even PPP had him up by 3.If Walker loses the likely voter model Is very
flawed.

Would be nice if he didn't and they have a weaker candidate win in the primary.

We really, really need to take the piss out of the GOP governors. All of them, from Scott in Florida, Haley in NC, Jindal in LA, Christie in NJ, all of them need to learn that yes, they are mortal, and being the servants of the Billionaires will NOT save them.
