Hey there: the WI recall is basically tied. If you care, do something about it.

I've seen way, way too many posts here basically saying "Well, that poll which shows it's tied is obviously a lie because it doesn't say what I think is the case. We're in the right, therefore we'll obviously win."

Consider this a wakeup call for anyone who thinks that way. Being right is no guarantee whatsoever of winning; if it were there wouldn't be any Republicans in government. There exists the very real possibility that Walker will win the recall. If you're opposed to that--and I'm going to go ahead and assume that basically everyone here is--then instead of assuming it's dealt with, do whatever you can, if anything. Most of us probably can't. But if you have some time to phone bank, or whatever, you really don't want to kick yourself in the ass Wednesday morning.

To vote in order to Preserve their rights that are being taken away from them by republicans, they are pathetic

It should be a slam dunk

Unfortunately, things aren't always so clear for most people.
