Koan, Wisconsin is not a victory or defeat for anyone. Walker knows well that he cannot be successful in ruling a state that is so deeply divided over his actions. After all, he has to face the electorate again in two years. Besides, he is a politician and knows well that he is perched in a unique position where he can give the political boot to whomever he pleases and at the same time become more powerful. The Tea Party thinks that they won. They are still licking their wounds fron losing the Senatorial race in Alaska, the backyard of their star member.

So it is time to move on. Ther are people who recognize that as in past recessions things at this point in this recessions's cycle could be better. But they also realize that the alternative presented by Romney and gang is to jake us back to the Bush/Cheney days where we jump to fund foreign wars at the expense of the budget and running up huge debts. They rather that we can invest in the debt by educating the next generation instead of using the debt to fill up the pockets of the 1% who belong to the military industrial complex. It is unproductive to match the wingnut approach of the far right from the left.
