gzilla45 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I can't believe the buzz around town regarding the recall election that I've seen today. It seems to be more than on presidential election days. Everyone and their brother are talking about it. From what I've heard the polling places have been incredibly busy. I should get to mine about 4:30 which means long lines. Anyone else in WI seeing similar results? Should be an interesting night of returns. Might have to stay up late for this one.

Ravin R10 man Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Wisconsin is leading the CHARGE!!!... Walker will win handily..then on to November and we will get this Monkey out of the Oval office! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotashRLS Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Yep, busy here too. We should have been recalling Jim Doyle all those years. He was good for robbing Peter to pay Paul. I hope it works out but regardless............We stand with Walker!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Shame the election cost the WI taxpayers so much money that could have been used elsewhere, $63 million was the figure I heard. Walker winning imo shows that the majority of voters there were in favor of getting and keeping the budget under control. As to whether or not the same will hold come November for the presidential election, guess we will have to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 well William..the way I see it..we take it back, put in conservatives in control or we go under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 well William..the way I see it..we take it back, put in conservatives in control or we go under No doubt Obama needs to go Martin, the way I saw/see it he never should have gotten in the White House in the first place, dunno though that Romney is really the choice of true conservatives. Further, I am not so sure enough voters in this country have had their eyes opened, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin R10 man Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I hope your wrong..on the wake up call..and YES I agree..NO WAY he should ever have been voted in..I just cant see him getting a second term...are people that stupid??

wtnhunt Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 are people that stupid?? Dunno Martin, seems that question would/should have applied to the 2008 election and look at where we are. People voted for a community organizer with very little leadership and no executive experience, a junior senator who voted "present" for a large number of his votes in his short time as a senator. Imo it is all going to boil down to whether or not enough voters are disgusted with the economy come time to vote. Gas prices and energy policies imo are going to be a factor too, Romney should run an ad with the video of Obama saying he wanted $12-13 a gallon gas to remind folks that the current prices will likely not hold much past November. Would not hurt to include video of Steven Chu's(energy secy) position on energy as well. Would be interesting to see where polls would be right now if gas was still $4 a gallon. Far as the Walker win being sign of what is to come as being speculated by some media, could be but does not appear that the most current polls for the presidential election are reflecting that. Maybe voters really have woke up and are tired of the big spending and big government and they will vote that way in November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m gardner Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Walker winning then Clinton slamming Obama for his policies towards small business. Looks like the temple is being torn down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Romney needs to stop appearing like a Ken doll and put a little fire and brimstone to his campaign. He needs to speak with a little more power and conviction than he is to show he can be a strong leader. As it is now he looks like he is posing for another photo op.

m gardner Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 I think from looking at what Romney did in Massachusetts that he'll continue to shred the Constitution. They always referred to the Mass State Police as "Jack Booted Thugs" and he went on the record as being proud of the gun laws they had there. I was on the board of directors at th Hale Mtn. Rod and Gun club in Shaftsbury, Vermont then and many people from Mass came to shoot there. They also left all their reloading trash there when they came because the trash men sometimes reported it when they found powder cans and the like and the police would come to investigate. I'm writing in Ron Paul because they both make me sick and it's my right to vote and I'm voting for someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 That will all come out, Mark. Once again we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. There are a lot of people in line for Ron Paul. I would rather pick the lesser of two evils than someone with a snowball's chance in hades of being elected. Ron Paul does get it and has a lot of great points and reasons to vote for him. We'll see how it shakes out.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can certainly understand why people would want to write in another candidate, unfortunately enough do that and we will be stuck with Obama. I will vote for Romney even though he was not who I wanted to see get the nomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
