On Wisconsin...

Well what can I tell you?

Three Million Bucks rarely prevails over Twenty Eight Million Bucks.

Thanks to Citizen's United, the Supreme Court has literally given money the right to vote, and money turned out in droves for Scott Walker.
Hopefully, Barack Obama will read these ballots as closely as Deval Patrick read the results of the 2010 US Senate Special Election.
We will have to endure a few days of GOP triumphalism and perhaps a wee nip of eliminationalist rhetoric before the regression to the mean sets in.
Win or lose though, this was a fight the labor and the democrats had to make, it was forced on them and they did the best they could with the resources at hand a'la the Patriots at Breed's Hill.
Of the distillant of despair, I advise my readers not to imbibe, the election isn't over by any means.
