Hey WilLIARd Rmoney so how does this national election compare with that Scott Walter victory?

Mitt Romney hailed Republican Gov. Scott Walker's victory over Democratic challenger Mayor Tom Barrett of Milwaukee in Tuesday's Wisconsin recall election, and said the vote has national implications.

"Tonight's results will echo beyond the borders of Wisconsin," the presumptive GOP presidential nominee said in a statement released on his campaign website.

Walker's win shows that "citizens and taxpayers can fight back — and prevail — against the runaway government costs imposed by labor bosses," Romney said. "Tonight voters said 'no' to the tired, liberal ideas of yesterday, and 'yes' to fiscal responsibility and a new direction."

If that was a mandate with national implications what is the Obama victory, the Senate victory and the increased numbers in the House and in National legislatures.
You just received a shellacking of unbelievable proportions.
Go Cheney yourselves ReTHUGs! Actually let me be clear - go fuck yourselves!!

they didn't feel they could support it unless there was something like illegal activity involved.

i remember someone said that Republicans should be careful about what this means.
