Wisconsin: Lost a Battle, But Winning the War

Vast sums of money were spent in an effort to buy a seat that was already held by their boy.

And still they ended up losing control of the state.

How much longer can they continue to spend millions and get nothing in return? They are businessmen, they know they can't afford throwing good money after bad.

The People are winning the war. We are winning because most of us can't be fooled and most of us can't be bought.

But we are the up and coming new media. It is up to we the people to spread the message via Occupy, the internet and face-to-face.

We can overcome the million$ in flashy ads and repeated lies. We are winning the war. We will lose a few more battles but in each battle the moneybags are getting drained. There will come a time when the money bags go dry and the war will be won.

I think we should have more of them. Put more of THEIR money into the economy. A sort of creative stimulus package provided by the people who don't support any economic stimulus plans that benefit the people. Sort of ironic to make the do it this way, and then there is the benefit to the country. It's a win/win situation for Dems and for the people, imo.

I laughed when I read about them whining about the cost. They should not reveal how it is hurting them, after all, that is the goal of recalling their puppets. Very bad strategy on their part. Gives people ideas.
