Watching Scott Walker give his victory speech, not big into politics anymore, but I think i just saw The next President of These United States.

Only time will tell, but IMHO, Governors always make the best Presidents, and this guy is impressive.

HALLELUJAH! The People have spoken, and the People have won!

Yeah, it obviously is about individuals, but it also is about parties, and in particular, it is about the ideas pushed by the two parties. Purely and simply, what the Democrats stand for has been roundly rejected pretty much nation-wide. I REJECT the notion that there are not good people and good ideas up for votes in elections.

As Buckeye said, Scott Walker's speech was impressive. His own governor, Kasich in Ohio is pretty impressive too - in both cases, MORE for what they have done while in office than for what they say. Many of the commentators said the vote tonight was a reflection of disgust with incumbents; Well, all of the Senate incumbents that got beat had something in common - they were Democrats!

Who will the Republicans put up in 2016? I don't know; That's what campaigns and the primaries are for. But in keeping with the subject of the thread, ANY of the many Republicans available would individually be a lot more competent and in tune with what Americans want than Hilary or any of the Dems.

For those who didn't vote for me I hope to earn your respect over the next four years. People in the state want me to be for something and not against something.

I dislike political ads immensely and solely because they are always aimed at knocking the opponent down, rather than telling us why we should vote for them and what they have planned for us. I don't want to hear why I shouldn't vote for someone, I wanna hear why I should vote for someone. One of the last Walker ads I seen did exactly that. He acknowledged that he fell short on his 250k job pledge, but said he would continue that effort among other things. And like Walker said, make it possible for everyone who WANTS A JOB, able to GET A JOB. That's the key right there. Many who do not have a job, simply do not want a job, they just want the paycheck.


Here is the Victory Speech.

Walker seems like a nice guy, but he had the luxury of having an excellent record that was an open book for all to see.

As for your last line, why would somebody want a job - work/eeeww - if he could get a paycheck for doing nothing hahahaha? Work is a four letter word.

Why would someone want a job? Are you seriously asking this? Why would someone want to support their family and themselves? What a preposterous and offensive question to even pose. Why the hell would anyone want handouts? Why would anyone want everything given to them? Where is the respect, the appreciation, the gratitude from having everything given to you?

Why would anyone want to live off others? The mere thought that people actually want this disgusts an infuriates me. Get the hell off your asses and work for a living, earn your way through life and stop complaining about what wasn't given to you and start earning it.

Negativity works on mindless fools, you got that right. That's why they do it. Those fools' votes count too, and there are a helluva lot of them. How else would assholes like Obama get elected?

I'm typing this on my wife's tablet, and it's so neat how I type a letter or two, and it anticipates the whole word. After I typed "asshole like" and the letter O, it went straight to Obama - smart tablet hahaha.

I think that all the republicans winning shows just how fed up the nation is with Obama and the whole Democratic Party.
The Dems have been in control for a long time, always saying how much they care for "the poor" and how the EVIL republicans HATE poor people. Yet in all the years the democrats have been in power, have things improved for poor people? The answer is NO. For all their talk, they haven't helped anyone but themselves.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Who? What?
beast (10h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (14h) : meh
Zero2Cool (18h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (18h) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (18h) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (21h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (21h) : Only 4
wpr (21h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
