And even now, with the requirement for recall such a low bar, what if they don't win? What if the 'recalled' legislators win their recall elections? Have the dems and labor 'activists' (I apologize for being redundant) even thought about that? What if there's a Sponge Bob marathon going on the day of the recall election, will those who signed remember to even show up?

"I suspect the Wisconsin GOP will demand a full body cavity search into the names provided and how the signatures were obtained."

That's what a competant party would do. Unfortunately we are talking about Republicans here.

I find all these recalls troubling. Politicians already rely too much on insta-polls to make decisions that should be based on principles enounciated during election campaigns. Now we have citizenry demanding elections after every decision with which they disagree. This can only end with a mutated form of "pure" democracy - elections held weekly on the fate of every piece of legislation - and eventually, chaos.

We get the government we deserve. If there are enough people so inclined to think the money fairy is real, so be it. If the dems are successful in Wisc that just means that Wisc is done and they along with Ill can happily float down the river until all they see is the falls. Then they are trapped.

Serious times require serious responses, obviously it looks like the children are in a good position to win one in Wisc and thus stick their heads in the sand, unless the adults are more numerous than we think. The beauty of this, and even danz knows this, is that the money eventually has to come from somewhere and since it seems the state doesn't want to create an environment to earn it, eventually it will be gone. And all the promises in the world the good liberal folks make to people like danz won't amount to a hill of beans when there is no money to fund any of them.
