This has been going on for weeks and Riot got mad and attacked when I called them union thugs. You can decide for yourself what the behavior reminds you of. Hopefully we can see some criminal charges for their behavior

Riot didn't "get mad and attack" (gee, you love the violence references, don't you? even when you have to lie about them?).

I called you out when you characterized 100,000 peaceful protesters as "union thugs" Because the definition of a "union thug" is a physically violent person. They were not physically violent in the least. You, however, continue to ignore that, and continue to falsely call them violent when they are not.

Wow - I'd love this job

No degree, little experience pay off

Just in his mid-20s, Brian Deschane has no college degree, very little management experience and two drunken-driving convictions.

Yet he has landed an $81,500-per-year job in Gov. Scott Walker's administration overseeing environmental and regulatory matters and dozens of employees at the Department of Commerce. Even though Walker says the state is broke and public employees are overpaid, Deschane already has earned a promotion and a 26% pay raise in just two months with the state.

How did Deschane score his plum assignment with the Walker team?

It's all in the family.

His father is Jerry Deschane, executive vice president and longtime lobbyist for the Madison-based Wisconsin Builders Association, which bet big on Walker during last year's governor's race.

The group's political action committee gave $29,000 to Walker and his running mate, Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, last year, making it one of the top five PAC donors to the governor's successful campaign. Even more impressive, members of the trade group funneled more than $92,000 through its conduit to Walker's campaign over the past two years.

Today was the election of Walker-supporter judicial Activist Judge Prosser vs challenger newcomer Kloppenberg. Prosser is supposed to walk in this election easily. In Dane County, Kloppenberg is winning, but that's far from the whole state.

BTW, the high-school graduate son of the big Walker donor - Brian Duschane, noted in the previous post - with no experience, no previous jobs, no college education, and 2 DWI's - who was given the $81,500 yr job was demoted today by Walker to a $62,000 job.

Its heck for Walker to get caught in outright political patronage. But dang, still a great deal for the unemployed kid, isn't it?!

-----------------------
10:00pm AP election results reporting:
344/3630 precincts reported, the incumbent leading:

Prosser: 101,156 51%
Kloppenberg: 97,422 49%

Walkers' conservative activist judge (who actually ran on publicly saying he'd ensured Walker's agenda would be supported) lost - the first time in 41 years an incumbent judge has been unseated.

The loss was only a couple hundred votes at this point, so he'll probably ask for a recount.

As for the rest of yesterdays' Wisconsin elections:

Not so fast

Also where did you get that prosser will support walkers agenda?

Prosser's record speaks for itself. The only reason this race is close is because of the ridiculous amount of $ spent for Kloppenburg's campaign
