Prosser legal team: "There's plenty of...opportunity to deliver a victory"
(I'm sure they will do anything to win this one)

David Prosser's campaign director remained optimistic early this afternoon even as unofficial returns showed the justice trailing narrowly.

"We are assembling our legal team and continuing to watch our vote totals," Nemoir said. "We are encouraged by the turnout and believe in a record-setting Supreme Court election there’s plenty of reason to believe there’s unrecognized opportunity to deliver a victory."

14. Damn. You're right. This is so deja vu of a George Bush comment.
They know how to challenge the Dem votes, concentrating hardest on the precincts or demographics that vote Democratically.

17. How Else Could they "Deliver" a Victory When They Got Fewer Votes?
They though they had stolen enough votes to win this,
but now they need to "deliver" a few more somehow.

6. in other words: "We need to find a legal way to steal the election."
"...or something that appears legal, so the media can cover our asses."

Hey, I wonder if the local Republican office has any of those "Sore-Loserman" signs left over from a decade ago! Payback's a BITCH, ain't it?

12. They plan to pull a Norm Coleman on Kloppenburg. I hope
our recount rules are as good, strict and as open as Minnesota's.

13. If they do steal this election, there will be even more hell to pay on individual GOP senators
who are being recalled and next year with Gov. Walker. It will only energize the WI Democratic base.

20. The Repugnants are so sure of getting their way...
that they came into Wisconsin with Walker and his shopping list laughing. Now, poor things, they are sleepless and tired, cranky, out of sorts, and wondering just exactly what has hit them.

The PEOPLE finally had a chance to do something that our leadership is unable or unwilling to do. This is a start. The ball is rolling downhill on the Repug side for a change.

Kudos to Wisconsin.

22. "unrecognized opportunity" = chance to steal. You would think they would not be so obvious.
