A Tale of One Recall, with Two Views: “A Bad Night for this Liberal Broadcaster” to “THIS IS What DEMOCRACY Looks Like!”

From the mouth of MSNBC’s whiner Ed Schultz:

Following the Democratic loss in the Wisconsin recall election on Tuesday night, MSNBC’s  ”The Ed Show” host Ed Schultz told viewers, “This is not going to be an easy night for many broadcasters who are liberal.”

At the top of his special 11 p.m. post-Wisconsin recall episode, the liberal host known for his over-the-top behavior added, “This is not going to be an easy night for this broadcaster,” putting the blame squarely on the U.S. Supreme Court’s Citizen United decision.

“This is not going to be an easy night for many broadcasters who are liberal,” Schultz said. “This is not going to be an easy night for this broadcaster. To say that I’m shocked and stunned is pretty much an understatement. But I also think — that as a real warning to Americans — that money is now infiltrated into our political system like we have never seen before. And the ruling by Citizens United is now a real message to every American. It is going to take an insurmountable amount of effort on the ground for the progressive movement and the Democrats to do what they need to do in 2012. And this is also a real message to local politics, that this money will filter down and Citizen United will affect federal and state elections over time.”

Just 3 Weeks Away, WI Gov. Scott Walker is “Holding His Own” in the Polls in the Recall Election

A poll released today shows Scott Walker holding a robust lead in next month’s June recall election. The poll, by polling firm We Ask America finds Walker backed by 52% of likely voters, nine points ahead of Democrat Tom Barrett’s 43%. This is consistent with the Rasmussen poll released last week, in the wake of the primary, showing Walker with a 5 point lead.

Earlier this year, unions in Wisconsin were very confident in their chances to recall first-term Governor Scott Walker. They turned in close to 1 million signatures to spark the recall, trumpeting their signature haul as a clear sign voters were poised to reject Walker:

“Scott Walker lied his way into office, and has since launched unprecedented attacks on Wisconsin’s working families, dividing the state like never before,” Steele said in an email. “This historic recall is a million-strong victory for Wisconsinites united to take their government back from wealthy special interests who bought and paid for Scott Walker and are dictating the terms of his extreme agenda.

Wisconsin GOP Senators Fed Up with AWOL Democrats

      The Wisconsin Senate has had enough of the shenanigans of the AWOL Democrats.

      In an effort to show that they would not allow the AWOL Dems to “stop” government, the Senate removed all of the “fiscal” portions of the legislation that was at the heart of the battle in the heartland. With the fiscal portions removed, the quorum was not needed, and the vote on the unions and collective bargaining for state employees was scheduled.

     News of the scheduled vote sparked the return of the crowds of protestors back to the Capitol building. Some of the AWOL Dems attempted to make the quick trip back to Madison to try to block the efforts.

      But this evening, with on GOP vote against the measure, the Wisconsin Senate voted to approve the Governor’s measures regarding the unions.

Newcomer GOP Governors Outshining White House Hopefuls

What’s wrong with this picture? While half a dozen current and former Republican governors weigh bids to challenge President Barack Obama, the party’s lightning and thunder are coming from a different handful of governors, who threaten to overshadow those potential candidates.

Republicans drawing the most national attention in recent weeks are first-term Govs. Scott Walker of Wisconsin and Chris Christie of New Jersey. Many conservatives love them for battling public-sector unions in the name of cutting government spending.

Not far behind is another tier of hard-charging, tough-talking GOP governors who say they are showing the country how to shrink budgets, and vowing to hold Obama accountable in ways traditionally left to Congress. They include Rick Perry of Texas, John Kasich of Ohio and Bob McDonnell of Virginia.

None of these governors shows any interest in running for president next year. Christie and Perry, in particular, routinely knock down the notion. Even if they resist temptation, however, these governors may play important roles in shaping a Republican presidential primary that is slow to take form.

“Its Up To My Parents”: WI State Senator How Long He Can Stay in Illinois

Gov. Walker Responds To Obama Remarks

Gov. Scott Walker on Monday afternoon responded to comments President Barack Obama made earlier in the day about the protests in Madison:

Walker’s office issued this statement:

“I’m sure the President knows that most federal employees do not have collective bargaining for wages and benefits while our plan allows it for base pay. And I’m sure the President knows that the average federal worker pays twice as much for health insurance as what we are asking for in Wisconsin. At least I would hope he knows these facts.

“Furthermore, I’m sure the President knows that we have repeatedly praised the more than 300,000 government workers who come to work every day in Wisconsin.

“I’m sure that President Obama simply misunderstands the issues in Wisconsin, and isn’t acting like the union bosses in saying one thing and doing another.”

FOX News Reporter Explains Antics of Some Protesters Trying to Stifle News Reports

Democrats Go Into Hiding To Stop Majority

What would have happened if this had been done in Congress during the ObamaCare votes?

House Democrats are leaving the state rather than vote on anti-union legislation, The Indianapolis Star has learned.

A source said Democrats are headed to Illinois, though it was possible some also might go to Kentucky. They need to go to a state with a Democratic governor to avoid being taken into police custody and returned to Indiana.

The House was came into session this morning, with only two of the 40 Democrats present. Those two were needed to make a motion, and a seconding motion, for any procedural steps Democrats would want to take to ensure Republicans don’t do anything official without quorum.

With only 58 legislators present, there was no quorum present to do business. The House needs 67 of its members to be present.

Gov. Scott Walker– In His Own Words

Anyone want to forecast this man’s future…………….

A View From Inside Madison

“Protesters spent the night on the floor of the Capitol. A friend of mine said the entire place smelled when she walked in on Friday morning. There was garbage everywhere. This is one of the most beautiful Capitol buildings in the country. The mob had no respect for the place, for what happens there, or for the citizens whose freedoms it represents.”

 

“On the other hand, one of the freshmen (Republican) members of the assembly tells me that the leggies are united and have bonded in a way that would never have been possible in other circumstances. On Thursday night, behind locked doors she said, they wept, held hands, and prayed, vowing unity. Another Senator says she thinks the tide has turned. Another (Repub) answered in response to my question; “This is kinda fun!”

 

“The Governor stands firm. I understand that there are strategies in place for next steps which will shake up the stalemate….I have known him for at least 15 years, but he is different now. He is a man who has met his time and his place, and he seems to know it.”
