Tuesday. In Wisconsin . By the two Dems against whom the Reps had organized a Recall. Well publicized by NPR in a sucky piece a week before the election introducing us to Patriotic Wisconsin Housewife, out there fighting the Good Fight and organizing one of the Recalls. Yawn.
Not saying NPR didn't have the right. Just pointing out that anyway the Dems got 54% and 58% of the vote.Which sounds like an improvement over the General judging by the absence of Republican claims of an improved share.
But there's more than one way to kill a cat. Or deal with a successful Dem. .If you can't beat em.. redistrict them away.
In the interests no doubt of fairness and the Wisconsin way the Reps have already taken advantage of their majority to redistrict out of existence the seat of one of the two Democratic survivors..
Hard to find, even here, much coverage of Tuesday's results. Nothing like last week when the commentariat were clucking over the dems only winning two of their six challenges. "Despite all that union money that had been used" ( no mention of the Koch$s. Pity the Kochies don't form a union.)

Makes my day, Flavius. It's a win, no matter how it's presented. (We could use a few more of those.)

Sometimes the good guys do finally win.
