Yeah this was a big win for the Repubs but all this talk about this means bad news for Obama is ridicules. No matter what Wisconsin is still a Democrat state even though they liked the Republican better for governor. Everybodys trying to stir things up and make up a story when there isn't one. Democrats shouldn't take anything for granted but this doen't mean Wisconsin is a lost cause now.

The President and the Dems shouldn't fool themselves. This is a major *WIN* for the Repubs, in general, and for Walker, in particular. He can now move forward with his agenda to cut spending in his state, embolden by the fact that he has the support of most Wisconsin voters. The flip-side: This is a major *FAIL* for the Dems, Unions and other anti-Walker/anti-Repub groups, in Wisconsin. It's been said many times, "Perception is Reality in politics" ...therefore one should pick one's battles carefully AND be smart about how one plans to defeat their opponent. Not only did the efforts of Wisconsin Dems, state employees and teachers unions (urged on in no small measure by the likes of MSNBC's Ed Shultz) fall short. They fell embarrassingly short...smh. CBS News: "It’s the first time a U.S. governor has survived a recall attempt." At this point in time, I'd say the state of Wisconsin certainly has the POTENTIAL to be in-play come November. Whether that actually comes to fruition? We shall see.
