Alberta Darling on Mike Goushe

She blamed the election going to Obama on poor GOTV technology... it just didn't work. It was a shame that Voter ID was not in effect because... too many people voted. And evidently the Republican effort failed because... not enough people voted.

I'm not sure how that squares with the Republican takeover of both State Houses. Oh yeah, Voter ID was supposed to keep the Democrats in Dane County and Milwaukee from voting.

When asked about ObamaCare she said Wisconsin already had the best Health Care delivery system and the lowest unemployment in the country so everyone is already covered. So we don't need it. (Does she know that being employed and having health insurance are not the same thing?)

Actually we have 7.3% unemployment and we're 25th among the states. And because Walker is so late in responding to this Wisconsin is going to have to scramble to create an exchange or let the federal government do it.

Common theme: Denial
