The race is on track to break spending records, as millions pour into the state.

That’s a lot of artificial negativity forced on Wisconsiners by outside agitators, negativity focused on America and Americans.

“libertine”

Defined as “a freethinker”. That tells you what Republicans really think about individualism.

It took them a dozen years, but Citizen’s United allowed these people to game the system.

We win by the new generation coming into politics, but only if they have the backing.

The Left needs to realize they are the ones with the good jobs, and that 80 million well employed beats the Boats for Trump fucks day and night.

Next year the bulk of my wages are going to Dem candidates. I hope you feel the same way.

We are within sight of defeating these two-faced God-squad bastards for the first time in a thousand years, and if you don’t know it, look at them and realize that they do.

“to preserve sexual libertinism.”

Ah yes, the GOP platform: Somebody, somewhere, might be having a good time, and we must put a stop to that.

Wisconsin is one of the states I really weep for - a great state that has been absolutely poisoned by gerrymandering and political back-stabbing of the first order. They are hanging on by a thread - I am very anxious to see what the results of this election are.

National Republicans need their crooked State SC’s because they need the gerrymandering

I have to imagine there’s a significant plurality of people out there who are sexual libertines, but they’re told by a book collated from folktales told orally thousands of years ago to feel bad about that, so they repress their feelings until they explode (in anger or anguish) at some indefinite point in the future.

This will light a fire, alright.

Under WisDems to say, no way.

Isn’t it also one of the states where Regressives already gutted what used to be an excellent education school system? Something DeSantis is more than happy to emulate.
