Just 3 years ago, who in their right mind would have thought Wisconsin would be the state where conservatives would make their stand? Governor Walker drew a line in the sand and, by God, he persevered in his reformation of a perennially liberal state.
And now the GOP VP pick is Wisconsin’s own Paul Ryan. Another line in the sand true conservative who is not cowed by the likes of a wanna be socialist President, or his minions in the democrat party.
The next best thing to come out of Wisconsin is JJ Watt!

Must be an Oiler fan! You already know the good JJ has brought to your team. Well, Ryan will be outstanding for the country! We do it right in the dairy state.
It’s a great day to throw the dice. 😀 😀 😀

are terrible, we have a 5.9% state income tax, we have very very high real estate taxes, the
teacher unions control the state. We have a number of college towns including madison that
are as liberal as California, we have the city of Milwaukee with the worse schools in the
United States, and half the people on wellfare and we have the wisconsin department of
revenue which makes the IRS look like a cub scout pack.
The state of Wisconsin is so greedy that it has approved the packs of all the Indian casino’s and
the Wisconsin Department of Revenue only allows a $300 loss write off against wins in a year
at the 17 casino’s they support. So if you win $20,000 in jack pots in a year and actually lose
$22,000 you will still pay full tax on the $20,000.
The divide between conservative and liberal is as vast here as it is anywhere in the country.
This is a perfect place to wage this battle, and until this year i would have said it is a battle
that can not be won. Seems the teachers unions were as as god like as they thought.

P.S. …. what really made the difference was 4 more new members of GTC 😀 😀
