Dear Slackers--Foreplay is Over!

Dear Slackers,

I love you! Some of my best friends are slackers! Why, some people think I'M a slacker! I've hurt my own feelings.

But, The TIME is finally here. We have made posters and signs and driven to Madison and stood out in the snow and freezing weather. We have collected pledges. We collected a million signatures! Are we there, yet!

Hell, NO! That was just foreplay--so to speak. Our warm-up exercises. The appetizer. The antipasto, aperitif, canapé, cocktail, the hors d'oeuvre... I just love words, don't you? It pains me deeply to have cheating flunk for guv!

Well, my very dear friends in the RECALL WALKER movement--former Republicans, regretful Walker voters, environmentalists, Independents, independents, Greens, Democrats, democrats, and thinking people! I just cannot wait for the main course!

I have been accused of being hard to please. Exacting. Demanding. Oh, some heartless person called me "demanding" once. Or twice. Or a few times.

And, this is what I want: Record numbers of voters! And, a record win by a Democrat for governor of Wisconsin. Ohhhhhh...I want the Senate and the Assembly in Democrat hands, too. Is that too much to ask?

Yes, the petition collection was just a little foreplay--a love letter to Walker, so to speak.

NOW is the main event. NOW is the time to "Kiss Walker Goodbye!"

Oh, dear--I just threw up a little in my mouth! But, "Kiss Walker Goodbye" is just a metaphor and it is a lot better than, "It's Time to Kick Walker's A@#!" or "It's Time to Kick Walker in the Head!" or ...

So, my dear slackers, we think we worked long hard hours last winter? We stood out in the cold and snow? We called and canvassed and called and canvassed and stood on street corners?

Hah! That was just the beginning--the appetizer--and it was all for naught if we fail now to GET OUT THE VOTE!

So, get off your cans! Put away that beer cheese! Put away the beer AND the cheese! Turn off the TV. Your family, your house, your car, your lawn...your personal life can wait. You won't be able to afford them unless we KISS WALKER GOODBYE ON JUNE 5.

Get to the Democratic Coordinated Campaign Offices and volunteer or we are going to be stuck with that ring-tailed SOB forever! So, get off your behinds and get to 111 West Milwaukee and volunteer! Mon - Sat 9-9 and Sun 12 noon - 9pm.
