PROSSER DEFEATS KOPPPENBURG BIG TIME

What a day it has been in Wisconsin. As of Wed. this week. Kloppenburg was claiming the prize of all prizes, I won, I won, I am going to the WI Supreme Court - but only by 205 votes. Her grabbing the brass ring was slightly premature. Did she not think there would be a recount? And then this morning on the news came the announcement that after rechecking the ballots before submission to the state, Winnebago County found some votes that had not been counted. After they were included Prosser was ahead of Kloppenburg by 40 votes. Still too close to call, and still on the way to a recount. But tonight the Oscar goes to Justice Prosser. Waukesha County found a "human error" which caused nearly 15,000 votes from the city of Brookfield to be excluded from the early count of ballots. The data was sent from Brookfield to the Clerk's office but did not get transferred to the final report given to the media. Brookfield is a heavily red area, casting 10,859 votes for Prosser and 3,456 votes for Kloppenberg. The inclusion of these ballots netted Prosser over 7,000 votes. A lead this large may be enough to prevent an automatic re-count. Kloppenburg would still have 3 days to ask for a re-count, but she would have to pay for it herself. The Brookfield count appears to be legitimate. There were Dems and Reps there during the counting process, and all agree that the final count is 100% accurate. So no funny business to be had. Do you think the Democrats will finally get the message? They didn't get it from the 2010 election. They didn't get it for weeks while they caused $7 million in damage to the Capital. They didn't get it when 14 Senators left the state to avoid doing their jobs. They didn't get it when they squatted in the Capital for weeks instead of staying on their jobs. And now, when the union/Dem voter turnout was monumental, all voting for Kloppenburg, they have lost. I wonder if they will get it now? The equally strong Republican turnout was due to the over-the-top reaction the unions and government workers had to Walker's reforms. The fleeing of the Dem legislators, storming the Capital, the fraudulent sick slips, teachers abandoning their classrooms, the death threats, the intimidation, the law breaking. They sure didn't make a very good impression on the whole country. Conservatives rallied to get out their vote due to the exhaustion and revulsion they felt at the hysterical tantrums exhibited by the Left. They Are Fed Up! Conservatives also had a very clear understanding of what was in play. There is a very real threat that the lawful acts of the legislature will not play out without interference from a politically motivated court, Judge Sumi, who has issued an injunction against Walker's bill. There is a very real possibility that her activist antics will drive the issue right to the Supreme Court. We all saw that. And we weren't about to let the WI Supreme Court be controlled by Kloppenburg, a DNR activist prosecuter with no experience on the bench. Do you remember when the GOP finally won Illinois and beat the Daley machine by holding outstate votes until after Cook County/Chicago had to report their vote numbers? The Dems didn't know how many votes they had to create to win, and after the outstate totals were released, the Dems realized that, ooops, they guessed wrong. Now I don't want to say that's what happened in WI, but it is strange, I think, that Prosser was winning throughout the entire vote count, and even when the reporting precincts were over 99% he was still ahead by about 900 votes. And then suddenly with 1% left to report Kloppenburg takes the lead by 205. But the Dems didn't know about Brookfield! I suspect this was not intentional, but well Played, Wisconsin Republicans, Well Played.

PROSSER VS KLOPPENBURG ON APRIL 5

PROSSER VS. KLOPPENBURG – THE TRUTH. NEW INFORMATION 3/31/2011. Kloppenberg has never been a judge. She has been turned down for a judge position four (4) times, twice by Dem. Jim Doyle, her former boss. She claims to have "broad legal experience." But she has repeatedly stated she's been a DNR attorney for the last 22 years going after homeowners and businesses on behalf of the DNR. She was a state prosecutor, but she freely admits, "I've never said I was tough on crime." She says she's "independent and impartial," but she is directly linked to outside interest groups and unions who are dumping millions into WI in support of her campaign in the expectation of stopping Gov. Walker's Budget Repair Bill when it arrives at the Supreme Court level. PLEASE, PLEASE VOTE ON 4/5 FOR JUSTICE PROSSER. I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH HOW IMPORTANT YOUR VOTE WILL BE. AS OF TODAY POLLS SHOW THEM NECK AND NECK. POST FROM 3/28. Supreme Court Justice Prosser has been endorsed by 206 law enforcement/elected officials. Kloppenburg has been endorsed by 43. Prosser has been endorsed by 77 members of the senate/assembly. Kloppenburg has been endorsed by five. Many current Democrats are not endorsing her. Prosser has been endorsed by many newspapers and associations. Kloppenburg has been endorsed by one. Prosser has decades of judicial experience. Kloppenburg has 21 years as a prosecutor, most of that time representing the DNR in cases that target homeowners. She has never been a judge. Kloppenburg described as “wonderful” a decision by the court that told a woman she couldn’t build a deck on the back of her house. She wants an iron fisted policy regarding land use, piers and water rights. She has been at the center of opposing WI legislative efforts to rein in the power of the DNR. Kloppenburg accepted a campaign contribution from the husband of Judge Maryann Sumi, the liberal judge who blocked Walker’s Budget Repair Bill. She surely has not remained “independent” on this issue, even though she claims she has. And she has stated she would NOT recuse herself from ruling on any issues involving the unions or the Budget Repair Bill. And now the lawyers are all for Kloppenburg and are attempting to remove Prosser from the Supreme Court. Guess why? Four years ago when WI government was completely controlled by Democrats, the Assembly and Senate both passed extensive “Tort Reform.” Gov. Doyle vetoed that bill. Now both houses passed the tort reform bill again, and this time Gov. Walker signed it. So the lawyers are spittin’ mad. But this bill is necessary to restore sanity to the legal system in WI. The bill brings WI’s rules on product liability and admissibility of expert testimony in line with the more strict rules applied in federal courts. It contains many other changes that will benefit WI when companies are deciding where to locate. They don’t locate in states where there is a repressive legal system. And if you see any ads anywhere accusing Prosser of being soft on sex offenders, it’s a lie. Look it up. Make sure you separate the chaff from the wheat when you vote on April 5. It is imperative that you treat this election like a presidential election unless you want the WI Supreme Court controlled by activists who will legislate from the bench. The term is for 10 years. We can't afford an activist court for 10 years. The first thing they will do is rule the Walker's Budget Bill is "out." IT'S NOT ABOUT THE LAW! IT'S ABOUT POLITICS. Vote Prosser on April 5.
