I hope he loses this recall by a landslide, and the Feds step in and get him for every sleazy thing he's ever done. And they slap him in a cell with Blagojevich for lulz.

I second all of the above!

I will be drinking heavily tomorrow because there is no way I will stay dry-eyed regardless of the outcome. If I'm going to be a sobbing mess, I'm going to at least be loosy-goosy about it.

are you from wisconsin? do you think he will win?

lilyginny27 June 4 2012, 13:08:56 UTC

Yeah, I am. No, I don't think he'll win, but I think it will be close enough to trigger a re-count. People on both sides are completely up in arms about this, and I know some people who refuse to vote because they don't want to "pick sides". He completely succeeded in dividing the state. Heck, he's divided my street well enough I know neighbors who refuse to speak to each other anymore because of where they stand. It's hot. It's heated, and boy is it game on.

I am praying to every deity out there that he loses tomorrow.

same. crossing my fingers & toes, sending out ~good vibes~, whatever it takes to get this douchebag out of office.

I was wondering when this legal thing was going to come to light again. Seemed like it disappeared for a while.

However, I'm not really convinced that this federal investigation will sway any of his believers because the GOP taught them all that "federal" means "Obama" and it's all "an evul (Fill-in-the-blank) conspiracy".
