That is what we aim to do, Jed. The sooner the better. Recall efforts are now underway. BTW, I'm reminded of something Peatbog recently stated: > I am pleased the Republicans found a way to put the will of the people > into effect despite the worst efforts of the democrats. Yes, let's do talk about "...the will of the people." First, a little history. Wisconsin's apathetic voter turnout (a 48% turnout) in 2010 resulted in the election of a republican governor, Scott Walker. Walker won the election by a slim 52% of those who actually voted. Statistics show that 1,128,941 voters voted for Walker out of a total of 4,360,000 potential votes. This means less that 26% of total eligible Wisconsin voters, 26% of the "will of the people" actually voted to elect Scott Walker. The other 74% voted for Tom Barrett the Democratic choice, or didn't vote at all because they were undecided, or they were simply apathetic about the whole voting thing. Of the many posters seen down at the capital was the following: "I voted for Scott Walker, and I'm sorry" Let this be a lesson to everyone on the matter that when voter turnout becomes apathetic we open the door for the installation of dictators and puppet regimes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Walker_%28politician%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisconsin_gubernatorial_election,_2010 Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
