  • A little off topic, but did you guys see this? Scott Walker is out, and he fell victim to the changes HIS administration made to a recount ?

  • I have never seen a recount change the outcome.

    Doesn't say anything at all about falling victim to the recount law. First you had to assume that they lost by more than 1% and there was more than 1% mishandled votes, second he have to assume that they are calling for a recount in the first place. He fell victim to the same thing that every other politician that loses an election falls victim to.

    But hey I guess it's a win for the unions ?. A loss for the working men and women of Wisconsin. ?

    It's actually a win for the working people of Wisconsin WSS. Andit mentions in the 2nd paragraph about how he changed the recount rules. Karma.

    watch them vote down the military budget, unless they get a trillion bucks for funding the lives

    of illegals.

    Again it's just my opinion and I know we disagree about how good unions are for modern-day workforces. That aside I don't see anything to make me think that he's demanding a recount or that there's evidence that more than 1% of the vote was crooked. Of course there are Democrats involved so...

    Both political parties got good news yesterday, but the real winner was America.

    With record turnout and sky-high participation, we saw an engaged, plugged-in democratic process at work.

    Today, it's time to come together as Americans and work toward solutions that benefit all!

    Ivanka just being nice.

    It was not good news for democrats and all those thirsting for a "Blue Wave".

    This was a huge victory. All the never Trumpers in the Senate are gone..outa here!

    Trump right up there with Reagan:

    The most House seats ever lost by a president’s party in power was Obama in 2010. He lost 63. Next was Bill Clinton in 1994. He lost 52. In 1958, Eisenhower lost 48, as did Ford and Nixon in 1974. They lost 48.
    Lyndon Johnson in ’66, lost 47. Harry Truman in ’46 lost 45 seats. George W. Bush in 2006 lost 30. In 1950, Harry Truman lost 29. Reagan, in ’82, lost 26 seats, and in 2016 Trump is at 27 .

    In the Senate everyone Obama campaigned for lost.

    9 out of the 11 that Trump campaigned for won.

  • Once America watches the dems own the house for the next few? years, they will rebound back to reality.

    Except the radical kids in college and many of the poor. They want their free ride, their imposed utopian dream world of

    socialism.

       I wish they would start requiring Real American and Real World history to be taught again.

    ah, just now catching up, busy day yesterday - I guess you missed that I was referring to the incoming dem house? I was referring to the dem senate in the next few years. Of course it passed before the dems took the house - it was going to pass anyways. You watch the next time the military budget is up from the dem senate.

    well, you aren't smart enough to be radicalized, you just don't believe in anything - that's your birdbrain schtick.

    Yes, I'll watch.  they'll pass it overwhelmingly again because they're every bit as fiscally irresponsible as the GOP claims they aren't.   

    Same same, old boy.

    Oh, Y'EAH? well, could be....

    but cutting our military budget to add more to the dynamically growing welfare/unearned benefits/dems buying votes isn't helping, and just cutting the military budget isn't going to help either.
