What in the world is wrong with Kloppenberg coming out at the end of a long count and saying "looks like we won by 200 votes"? Then acknowledging the election isn't yet certified, knowing that would prompt the auto recount. Seriously? You think that was bad behaviour? Seriously?

Then, three days later, Waukesha had the Dem election judges certify the results for that county in the am, that afternoon the right wing blogs started talking about a 7,000 count bag of uncounted votes found, and there was a 5:00pm press conference where the Waukesha county clerk said she found those votes had magically been deleted from her computer, and were not in the totals counted. And she knew about it before that morning, when she had the Dems sign off on the election results of her county.

Yes, I know exactly who the classier candidate - and party - was in this election.

The Republicans are on their way out in Wisconsin. Walker is stuck with his union busting bill making it's way through the courts, because he doesn't have the votes now to retake it and simply pass it the normal way (without secret meetings, saying it's not a budget bill so they don't need a certain vote count, etc).
Again you say that the votes magicaly appeared. Was it magic or were not all votes properly counted? As someone who stands against voter id because it disenfranchises voters I would think you would want every vote counted.
