A hardcore republican friend of mine forwarded me this. Not sure I'm following what the strategy is. Apparently it seems they aren't endorseing voting for Falk in the primary. A letter in the Wisconsin State Urinal last week had some libtard writing in about "defeating Walker in the primary". So there may be an organized effort by the libs to do so...so maybe it might not be the best strategy to hope and assume the libs aren't going to all pool together to vote for the protest candidate. Seems this 'Mitchell' character is bad news....and I never heard of him.
Vote for Walker in Primary Election on Tuesday May 8th. The Republican Party of Wisconsin is recommending we all get out to vote for GOVERNOR WALKER in the May 8th Primary election.
HOWEVER......DON"T STOP THERE! YOU CAN ALSO VOTE AGAINST THE LT. GOVERNOR DEMOCRAT CANDIDATE IN THE SAME ELECTION! This Recall Election is different than a normal primary. Each election is separate. Therefore, you CAN vote in the Governor's Primary on the Republican side and vote for Governor Walker, AND, then you can also vote in the Lt. Governor's primary on the Democrat side! Mahlon MItchell is the Democrat Candidate for Lt. Governor. ISAAC WEIX is the Republican Protest Candidate. Vote for ISAAC WEIX in the Lt. Governor Primary and ELIMINATE Mr. Mitchell in the primary. Forward this, Tweet this, Share on Facebook from our Facebook Page http://www.facebook.com/winnebagogop, Make this go VIRAL so everyone knows this is different than a normal primary election. Click Here for a view of a sample ballot correctly filled out. Click Here for the GAB ruling stating that it is OK to cross over and vote in the Republican Governor's Primary and the Democratic Lt. Governor Primary. GET OUT TO VOTE ON MAY 8TH! DO NOT STAY HOME! Joe Malecki Communications Chair Winnebago County Republican Party Working Hard to help keep Wisconsin moving Forward! |

I don't understand this whole recall election crap. Why is there even a Republican primary? Doesn't make sense. A recall election should be about whether or not to remove the current office holder, not hold a total re-run of the last election when the current one got elected, with primaries, etc. . It should be a "yes or no" referendum type. And if the answer is "yes, remove him", only then should all this seeking of alternative candidates take place.
Recall referendums should only be allowed in cases of illegal activity, moral issues, etc.... not just because you don't like him, or his policies & politics. If that's the case, when his term of office is up and if the majority agrees, he gets voted out. That's the way it's always been. The whole recall thing is a farce. I can see this happening again and again, unless the law gets changed. Might as well make all terms of office one year and be done with it. 
My wife and I intended to vote tomorrow, for Walker, anyway,... just to send a message, if nothing more. I usually have to prod her to go vote. This time it's differant... she reminded me this morning "don't forget, we gotta vote tomorrow". It's the most "motivated" I've seen her for any election in the 40 years we've been married.  She's never ever put any bumper stickers or stickers of any kind on her cars. I once put an NRA decal in her back window, and she had a shit-fit. Not because she doesn't like the NRA, she just doesn't like advertising for it or anything else. I got a "I Stand with Walker" sticker in the mail, and she put it on her car last week. I was stunned! She usually ignores politics altogether, but the constant barrage of TV commercials slamming Walker has her really pissed off, and she doesn't even like him that much.... but she really has developed a hatred of Liberals over this whole mess.

She never cared for any election until this...we will be both headed to the polls in the morning, and since Starbucks is right across the street we'll both carry (her first time) while we have a coffee! |
