With so much at stake, there are no run-of-the mill races anymore. Then again, I never thought there were. But apparently many did.
Hope this administration solves that misconception for a generation or two.
Wisconsin Supreme Court races have been vicious partisan battlegrounds for years. Indeed, the WI Supreme Court itself is a battleground.
Just so I understandā¦ it is perfectly ok for Republicans to take millions and millions of dollars of Dark Moneyā¦ money we have no idea of who it came fromā¦ but but if a Democrat takes money (that is in the open and declared) and an (omg) endorsementā¦ suddenly its not ok and it is interference?
Flaming hypocrites.
Awesome comment and great perspective. Iāve been saying for years all Americans should have mandatory military or civil service. Preferably in a region of the country they currently donāt reside in, and more preferably with people of vastly different backgrounds. The liberal from CA and the conservative from AL might learn they arenāt so different, and that would be a good thing.
you got it
I think the big question isā¦at what point will GOTPers ādiscoverā a couple thousand extra votes to juuuuust overcome the margin?
April 2011.
āāIn a shocking twist, a clerk in a conservative Wisconsin county announced Thursday that she had discovered a net gain of 7,582 votes for an embattled conservative Supreme Court justice, a total that would make him the winner of an election in which his challenger declared victory Wednesday.āā
Oh, Iām well aware.
They got away with it once, why not again?
You know, for a party that claims to be against judicial activism, Republicans sure want an awful lot of it.
Iām against men dating much younger women. You know, unless itās me. Then I can find a way to justify it.
Agree until sending people to āopposite statesā - sounds too much like the great leap forward. Letās send doctors to the rice paddies and peasants to laboratories! Thereās plenty of good to be done in oneās own region whoever and wherever you are.
Iām glad that Missouri has judges selected by the Appellate Judicial Commission, voters in MO only get to retain after a year on the bench or dismiss. The Missouri Plan seems to take the crazy of seating judges.
Thatās what Waukesha County is for.
ā¦ seems to take the crazy out of seating judges?
I remember that. Nothing suspicious about it at all.
That sounds like a terrible idea, who suggested sending doctors to rice paddies and peasants to laboratories!!
I donāt think itās enough to just do mandatory military or civil service. It needs to be in a setting where people who donāt normally interact get a chance to meet each other. California, meet Alabama. Alabama, meet California.
Could easily be, āSan Francisco, meet Fresno ā Fresno, this is San Franciscoā; or, āDavis, meet Bakersfield ā Bakersfield, Iād like you to meet Davisā.
that right there is an excellent point.
