Cheesehead Turnabout

There was an election Tuesday for Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice. The Democrat ran on the platform of overturning a recent Republican bill that took power away from public employee unions. The Democrat seemed to win by 100 or so votes. It was a great victory, of great significance, trumpeted across the land.

Then some more votes were found. Republican votes. And the Republican was ahead by 7000 or so votes.

You know what this means:

“Small, state-wide election with vital national implications soon to have no national implications whatsoever.”

Elections won by your foes
are merely sideshows.
