re: #20 Varek Raith

Way to step into that nuclear minefield.

Last I heard, 6 Repubs who are eligible are up for recalls, with the votes in 40 days. If the Dems manage to take even half of those, then they retake power in the state Senate and Walker’s agenda gets shredded. Especially when, at the beginning of next year, he himself will be eligible for recall.

My guess is the state GOP has decided to throw caution to the wind and see what they can ram through, figuring it’s better than gambling on keeping the necessary 4 seats to remain in power.
