I'd have to look a lot more into it to see how it would play out and how it polls. The last thing you want to do is excite the Democrats to show up.<br /><br />By the way, I understand over $50 million was spent on Wisconsin so far. That's a ton of money that can't be used anywhere else now.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-86652595192905830642012-06-04T20:55:15.017-04:002012-06-04T20:55:15.017-04:00Andrew I agree with you that the irony you point i...Andrew I agree with you that the irony you point is delicious but there is one thing more that I like about tbis and one thing that I think is a missed opportunity.<br /><br />First the good... Yes the Dems poured millions into the One's coffers but they were doing that anyways. They however had to pour millions into getting the petitions signed to have this election and then millions to fight it. This is millions they do not have to give to the One.<br /><br />Now the missed opportunity. And I state this not just about my outrage at Dem Congressmen in Wisconsin but in Texas a few years back when the had to vote on redistricitng.<br /><br />This is the practice of leaving the state and staying in a hotel room incognito in an attempt to deny the legislature the ability to have a quarum for vote.<br /><br />I think that as part of this recall the GOP should have added language in a referendum or ammendment to the Wisconsin constituion that sad that should a member flee the state after being ordered by the legislative body to return because his actions are delaying legislation that member automatically resigns his office immediately and is no longer considered to have residency in the state for 10 years for the purpose of being able to run for any state or local office.<br /><br />This would even if it did not pass highlight the reprehensible behaviour of the democrats in the Wisconsin legislature who in my opinion are the ones who should be removed from office.Individualisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005025873042230314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-75247562076659515902012-06-04T18:25:08.801-04:002012-06-04T18:25:08.801-04:00Patti, I agree.
