Walker Blames Madison For Supreme Court Election

This shit is irrelevant now. The magically found votes in the ultra conservative Waukesha country. All because some jackass "didn't hit save". 15,000 "missing votes" now has Prosser up by over 7,500 votes. Just enough to be enough.

Brookfield, WI is basically where all the white people moved when too many black people moved into Milwaukee.

Needless to say, today, Brookfield and the state of WI reeks of bullshit.

Does this shithead not bother to look at the actual vote count by district?!

Last time I checked 500K people didn't live in Madison!

not over by a long shot.... the right has ALL the money

walker has been sucking up to the wrong corporation... the kock brothers have failed :D hahaha

Wow! Looks like most all of the comments below cover it! I'll say "Ditto" and be on my way...

Lovely. Walker scapegoats a large WI population center for his own incompetence and unethical/fraudulent behavior as governor.

That should help him a lot in building up his state's GOP elected politician numbers in 2012.

Also, with the mood of WI now, it certainly isn't going to help stave off a successful Walker recall.

Tool!

If this guys lips are moving...he's lying. What a human turd.

If you listen long enough to you're own Bull Shit, you tend to believe it.
If you look in the mirror long enough you cannot avoid what stares back at you.
The blame for your Supreme Court outcome lies squarely in your hands.
Madison just confirmed this for you.

This is exactly how Sarah Palin talks about "Real" America ( rural and hillbilly ) as opposed to fake America ( blue states and cities ).

Walker is saying that Wisconsinites who live in Madison, WI are not "real" Wisconsinites.

Walker is a liar and a coward who represents the crony-capitalism that is killing people and planet!
Case Closed!

Republican Gov. Scott Walker downplayed the significance of the election, saying it was skewed by exceptional turnout in the liberal cities of Madison and Milwaukee ... people vote and that skews the election??????

I haven't been following this very closely. My support has leaned more toward Walker but that is due to the behavior of the opposition rather than Walker himself.
If the people of Wisconsin elect the liberal candidate, what's his name, oh hers, Kloppenburg ( you can tell I follow this closely) the state will, in all probability tip further toward bankruptcy. Oh well, Wisconsin can join the many other states in the same position.
Get ready. If this goes to recount there will be some election judge who "found" a bunch of ballots favorable to the liberal candidate in the trunk of his car. I wonder how many dead people, ineligible ones or illegals voted in this election. Crank out the fraud books libs it is your time to shine. Business as usual. This should provide hours of entertainment given the lefts propensity to lie, cheat and steal. Glad I don't live there.

Oh no he didn't! I don't know who Scott Walker thinks he is , but someone needs to deflate his ego..It is extremely unprofessional, and demeaning, for a Governor of a State to refer to voters as weirdos..He will be begging these same voters for support when he is up for recall..

hey walker!! put on your man pants (LOL)

hey walker!!! god don't like ugly and karma is a bitch!!!

I grew up in North Central Wisconsin.
I have never ceased to find the practice of electing Supreme Court Justices in campaigns to be more than a little bizarre.

Everyone is always complaining about the low-down dirty, mud-slinging political wrangling in the Legislature.
We've now seen firsthand the extraordinary lengths to which the Governor will go in order to score political points with his party's ideologue base.

But the whole purpose behind having three separate and equal independent branches of government, and the system of checks and balances, is so that there might be at least one branch of the government that is above politics, and is NOT susceptible to the constantly-shifting whimsies of public opinion.

Judges are not supposed to make their rulings based upon what is or is not popular or unpopular.
They're supposed to rule based purely and solely upon the law, and the law alone.
But by forcing judges to campaign for election does precisely that, it makes their decisions biased towards what is popular, and against what is unpopular.

If what was popular was always the same as what was right, then just how would one go about explaining the persisting existence of the "Teabagger" party?
The truth is that what is popular is, quite possibly, the very WORST possible metric to measure its validity.
Many of the greatest advancements in the known recorded history of modern western civilization as we know it have also been some of the LEAST popular.

So by forcing judges to campaign for election and for re-election, we are eliminating, or the very least negating, the whole idea of UNbiased IMpartiality in our legal judicial court system.

Politics has no place in any decision that is ever made by a judge.
But anyone who has ever campaigned for anything, if only by that experience in and of itself, becomes a politician.
Once a politician, always a politician. (See: Newt Gingrich, Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, etc. etc. etc.)
Shouldn't we have at least one branch of our government that is NOT made up entirely of ambition-hungry power-thirsty conniving political animals?

I suppose that ship has now sailed in this particular case.

God has spoken and in 4 short months she has helped slap down the republicans.

Need help: spent the last three days following the elections in Wisconsin via Twitter. Could somebody from Wi please tell me what source of #wiunion is, Please.

That must be what he's trying to tell his Papa Koch's.

Super mega lol.

i'm native rural teeny-village-wisconsin, but moved away at age 26. nothing about this surprised me when news broke weeks ago because rural wisconsinites still tend to be insular. now i'm just so proud at the new turn of events.

I'm waiting for him to say al Qaeda drugged Madison before they went to vote. This man SO NEEDS TO GO!

GO WISCONSIN!

according to Walker: the more rural and third country like, the better.

Gov. Walker (R-WI) has responded to the news that his favored candidate for Supreme Court Justice, incumbent Justice David Prosser, appears to be losing to Dem-backed JoAnne Kloppenberg. So why'd it happen. Basically, all those weirdos in Madison, according to Walker. This was early today.

Gov. Scott Walker said this afternoon that the spring election results show there are "two very different worlds in this state."

"You've got a world driven by Madison, and a world driven by everybody else out across the majority of the rest of the state of Wisconsin," Walker said at a press conference in the Capitol.

Walker, Walker he's our Man
If he can't Steal it no one can

"The comparison between Walker’s run for student body president and his showdown with labor leaders as governor is, of course, imperfect. But there certainly appears to be a defining trait that threads the two together. Rallies and protests often draw political figures, who recognize the importance of movement association. For Walker, the inclination has been to demonize the crowds.

Walker ended up losing the student body election. His 11th-hour brochure-dropping may have played a role. The student body newspaper had initially endorsed Walker’s opponent, John Quigley, but argued that both candidates could serve effectively. A few days later, the paper rescinded its quasi-endorsement of Walker, as shown below, due to Walker’s politicking.

In addition to the mudslinging brochures, the editorial board's later statement hinted disappointment that Walker campaign workers had thrown away issues of the paper under the mistaken belief that the initial editorial had been simply pro-Quigley and not essentially a joint endorsement. "

thank you wisconsin

This all goes back to the Election in 2008. They are pissed and scared, that the Black Dude won!

Is it just me or does Scott Walker look like he has a perpetual head cold? I just want to send him a case of cold medicine and tell him to knock himself out.

Ok, let me preface, I am exhausted and dealing with a five year old while writing this ::winks::

This is exactly the moment I was waiting for in this election cycle! The People being blamed for the outcome of an election! The People Have a voice and it has been heard Gov.::snickers:: Walker! It doesn't matter if thier opinion is different from anyone's! The MAJORITY has spoken, respect the way this nation was meant to be governed by The People and step aside! You days are numbered as is, and the longer you delay the more crimes you will be charged with when your day comes. The war with you mister and those that supported you from shadowed corners with plans to undermine our way of life is far from over! Be prepared oh wicked man for your house among men has turned against you and those you sought to subjugate shall not forgive nor forget!

On another note! GO People of WI! Keep up the pressure, progress or bust!

Kloppenburg's win represent a referendum of Gov. Walker's anti-democratic policies.

So Scotty, why did Milwaukee county and many others also vote for Kloppenburg? Like the captain of a faltering ship, any port in a storm.

Walker is in denial that he and his Koch funded teabaggers LOST and his train wreck agenda has come to a screeching halt.

Wisconsin told these baggers too get the f*ck outta here, ♥ it!!!

Great job Wisconsin...Proud of you.

Well, he's gotta blame somebody other than himself, his minions and his overlords. It's a new day a comin' not only in Wisconsin, but the rest of the country as well. Good luck right-wing, teabagging, labor-hating, bigot conservatives. You're gonna need it.

I am not in Madison and I think you are a jackass and puppet for the Koch boys.

It is too bad you didn't don't have the critical thinking skills that would have helped you to finish college or you would be able to look at the vote totals from around the state and see it was much much bigger than Madison.
By the way what about Milwaukee and your boy Stone, did Madison cause that?

Scott Walker Joke:

"A doctor from Israel says: "In Israel the medicine is so advanced that we cut off a man's testicles; we put them into another man, and in 6 weeks he is looking for work."

The German doctor comments: "That's nothing, in Germany we take part of the brain out of a person; we put it into another person's head, and in 4 weeks he is looking
for work."
A Russian doctor says: "That's nothing either. In Russia we take out half of the heart from a person; we put it into another person's chest, and in 2 weeks he is looking for work."

The U.S. doctor answers immediately: "That's nothing my colleagues, you are way behind us....in the USA, about two months ago, we grabbed a person with no brains, no heart, and no balls....we made him Governor of Wisconsin, and now.......the whole state is looking for work!!!!!!"

Hey Walker bitch blame the man in the mirror. Not the one standing behind you bent over but look up and blame yourself! FINALLY FOLKS but why was it so close? Folks have not learnt anything from the past three months or the Kochroach bros shipped in voters?
