An
important official note to everybody voting on Tuesday
in the Wisconsin gubernatorial election:
From Wisconsin Election Protection:
We are receiving reports that some clerks are still asking
for Voter ID
under the guise of "practice." This is
NOT OK!
There should be NO requests for photo ID from voters! If
you see signs, if you are asked for your ID, please notify
us IMMEDIATELY. Call our 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-687-8683),
post here, or tweet us @EPWisco. Be sure to tell us what
polling site & where the site is located!!!

The
Great Flood
Corporate
money is pouring in to the race for Wisconsin's
next governor in record amounts, and 70%
of Republican Scott Walker's political donations are
from
out of state. Meanwhile, his opponent, Tom Barrett,
is reaping only 30% of his total donations from out
of
state. That's quite a difference.
Now, factor-in that Walker has about twenty times as
much to spend as Barrett and it's crystal clear that
an election is being bought, all thanks to the
five
conservative members of the Supreme Court and their
FABULOUS Citizens United decision. (That's sarcasm,
by the way. The only thing "fabulous" about it is,
well, nothing. Unless you like fascism.)
One more Walker note: The Department of Justice will
probably indict Governor Walker
on charges of mail or wire fraud after the election,
win-or-lose. They can't do it now because
such actions
are verboten 60 days before an election. These will
be serious charges so Wisconsites aren't voting for
Scott Walker, they're voting for his second-in-command,
Rebecca Kleefisch. This is not an improvement.
As for the presidential race, the Republicans already
have about two billion bucks ready to go to promote
their little Mormon quisling, most of which
comes from billionaires averaging
66 years of age. Each is looking
for a payoff that
will benefit
his business interests, and they will all profit from
Romney’s pledge to eliminate inheritance taxes,
extend the Bush tax cuts for the super-wealthy— and
then slash the top tax rate by another 20 percent.
At
least one of them has said they view these cash infusions
as an “investment,” plain and
simple. In themselves, of course.
So get ready
for five months and two billion dollars worth of Kenya,
socialism, birth certificates, and guns, 'cause, lord
knows, Romney doesn't
have
anything else
to run
on.

Mitt Romney Is A Big Fat Liar.
In
a recent interview with Time Magazine's Mark Halperin,
Mitt Romney asked, "Are
people happy with the level of foreclosures?"
Awww, he's all concerned for all the poor home-owners
out there.
Really?
Back in October of 2011 Romney stated: "Don’t try and stop
the foreclosure
process. Let it run its course and hit the bottom."
Mitt Romney is a liar. A big fat, liar.
