Holding the Wisconsin senate is great news, especially since the seats were threatened because they took a strong conservative stance. Even though 2 pubbies lost, this shows that the people are paying attention, even in a blue-state, union, political cesspool like Wisconsin. And there is a strong possibility that the GOP picks up a seat next week in the recall of the 2 Dem fleebaggers. Only losing one seat in a recall based on such a strong thrust by all the might of the commie labor movement will be a thorough repudiation of their position. More importantly, it is an affirmation of the conservative agenda in Wisconsin, which is a good snapshot of what is going on all across the country as the stakes become clear to the American people.
They wanted to make the stakes national, and now they'll have to live with the implications.
