Did big money win the day? Yes, but it's more complicated than that. People revolted against yet another recall, or so it seems. Recall exhaustion? That's what the exit polls are saying. As Jamie Bouie writes (posted by Greg Sargent in WaPo), "On Wisconsin, Conventional Wisdom is Mostly Wrong". According to exit polls, Walker won 17 percent of Obama supporters in the state, and overall, last night’s electorate favored the president over Mitt Romney by a significant margin, 52 [...]

Democracy in Action

The majority of people in this country think election day is on a Tuesday in November. But the uneducated, uninformed masses don't understand primaries, recalls and special elections. On those fronts, today is a biggie! So - we the informed - must work overtime to get out the vote.

What About Wisconsin?

Listen to this episode: {play} http://traffic.libsyn.com/radioornot/20120524_Nicole_Sandler_Show_-_What_About_Wisconsin.mp3 {/play} Podcast: Play in new window Election Day in Wisconsin is less than two weeks ago. Early voting is underway. And the Democratic Party is nowhere in sight. The DNC issued a tepid response to the recent outcry of their lack of monetary support by stating that Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz would head to Wisconsin "by the end of the month" to hold a fundraiser.
