1. Fair warning. Never turn your back on the GOP.

2. I'll believe it when he officially announces it.

4. I'll believe it when it happens

3. I'm sure that bastard has something else up his sleeve.

5. Let's see if he

really means it. Or will he slime his way out of this too? I would guess both legislative seats will have specials on the same day? Keep the heat on him Wisconsin!! You have a wonderfully proud progressive history. Make this the start of bringing your politics back to where it should have stayed all along.

6. Walker was a real.....

Koch sucker, wasn't he? Didn't they spend a ton of money in Wisconsin getting that dullard elected? I think the Koch brothers automatically go for the most stupid and detestable asshole for their "candidate". But that stupid, detestable asshole must be loyal, almost to a Trumpian extent. They want to make sure they get their money's worth of ass-kissing.

7. Yup he was and is...remember this??

The BEAST's Ian Murphy calls Walker, posing as archconservative moneybags David Koch, and they casually discuss crushing all public unions.

8. I never saw this before!

My, my, my......isn't Scottie the good little Koch-sucker. That's really disgusting. And the good people of Wisconsin elected this evil prick? Hey, the Electoral College elected Donald Trump, right? Anything can happen when you have that much evil and that much money pushing you up the hill.

Thanks for posting that! It refreshes my memory of how much I hate both the Koch brothers and Little Scottie Walker.

9. I have seen

an article in Daily Kos that says;

UPDATE: Moments ago Walker’s attorney’s informed the state Supreme Court that "the Governor has decided not to seek relief from the Supreme Court at this time.” The call for special elections will move forward tomorrow by noon.

So yes, it appears they have finally cornered him.

GOOD JOB !!!

10. No, he hasn't.

He said he would. That is not the same thing.

11. Wouldn't it be great if he loses in November?

Wanker could easily have ordered the two special elections to be held April 3, when Wisconsin spring elections for local offices and state supreme court are always held, at no extra cost to taxpayers (which is his flimsy excuse, taxpayers).

Oh yeah, and his three-billion-dollar taxpayer-money giveaway to Taiwanese Foxconn is, let's just say, not real popular with Wisconsiners.
