Fox River overflows with Conservative Tears

The whining continues. Jessica Mc Bride just cannot get over the fact that a Democrat is now the Mayor of Waukesha. Day after day these whiners cry about Nelson getting the support of the Democratic Party and their traditional allies (teachers, unions, etc). So friggen what?!?! Like Ann Nischke didn’t have the support of the Waukesha County Republicans, the Republican radio talkers, the Taxpayer’s League. Scott Walker and Dan Vrakas were swept into non-partisan offices with support from the Republican Party and 8-10 hours of free radio air time on right-wing radio for weeks preceding the election.

All of these races are partisan and if voters are dumb enough to believe that they aren’t that is not the fault of Larry Nelson or Ann Nischke. People should do their homework before they vote. Much to the chagrin of the right, people did do their homework and discovered Larry Nelson was the better candidate, period. All of you bloggers just can’t get over the fact that you had to back a terrible candidate. Some of the candidates knocked out in the primary I actually thought would have made a great Mayor, despite their Republican ties. Nischke got past the primary on on name recognition and spending and that is it. The voters were smart enough to see that she offered no enthusiasm or vision for Waukesha. When it came down to the general election all she had was her support of TABOR and the TPA.
