Scott Walker came out on top last night, but the real winner was democracy. The citizens of Wisconsin elected him a year and a half ago to rein in an out of control budget. Survival in this economy entails hard choices, whether for individuals, businesses, or governments at every level, and the people of Wisconsin are to be commended for their resolve in reiterating their determination not to be spent into bankruptcy to placate those used to sweetheart deals from politicians.
Scott Walker's kept his promise, balanced the budget, and is once again the clear choice of Wisconsin as governor. It's just a shame that they have been put to the trouble and expense of having to repeat themselves so soon by those who weren't listening the first time around.

About 50-60 million dollars. What a waste.
That's just the advertizing. They ought to present the actual bill for holding the election to the state Dem party and the unions. >;-)
I hope that Scott Walker's victory in the recall election is just the beginning of a conservative surge in our nation. God knows that we need such a surge!
I liked that some Dems apparently voted for Walker solely because they felt the recall was wrong. It IS wrong, votes either count or they don't.
And Kid emailed me this morning that the stats are showing 115% of the people in Wisconsin voted. I hope that's not a harbinger of things to come in November...but i fear it is.
Think they'll try to do anything about this before the election?
ya, right.
This was victory for clean orderly government over the strident, thuggish, hyper-belligerent tactics so characteristic of the left.
I know Wisconsin is supposed to be among the most liberal states in the union, but this recall election gives proof that there may still be more than a shred of decency and good common sense out there.
BRAVO! On Wisconsin!
KUDOS to the CHEESEHEADS!
BOO to the DEMONRATS!
