Win through the courts when you can't win elections

  Unions in Wisconsin are hoping to defeat public elections through the judiciary. The Supreme Court in Wisconsin has an important election coming up next week. There's a lot of controversy tonight over an ad that Kloppenberg, the sympathetic to the unions judicial candidate has running through a third party. Watch the confrontation here:

  Kloppenberg is complaining about outside donations, even while receiving 3 million dollars in outside donations herself. From Red State:
We have covered extensively how the liberals in Wisconsin are trying to overturn the results of last year’s elections by funding a massive campaign to oust conservative Justice David Prosser in favor of liberal assistant AG Joanne Kloppenburg (see herehere, and here). One of the things we have covered extensively is that Kloppenburg is the beneficiary of a massive $3 million advertising campaign sponsored by outside Democrat and union groups who hope that she will overturn the recent legislation on collective bargaining for public employees. 
  Professor Jacobsen is disturbed that Sumi, the activist judge who is trying to shut down the voters' decision to elect Republicans, seems to be creating offenses for the state attorneys involved in the case. 
  He's also concerned that not enough is being done to support Prosser by Republicans:

Please join me in helping the effort.  Donate here.
Update:  Here is the plan: 
We are buying every available airtime slot on Wisconsin TV - statewide - to run this ad. We need your help, urgently. With so little time we have to raise as much money as we can, so we can purchase this airtime for the TV ad. You can now donate to our Wisconsin State PAC.
And thanks to a commenter for this link to a National Review editorial:
Wisconsin supreme court justice David Prosser went to bed one night a respected former prosecutor, and woke up the next morning the target of a $3 million union-run smear campaign, falsely accused of being an enabler of pedophiles. That is what you get when you oppose the political machine that has been fleecing taxpayers in Wisconsin and elsewhere for a generation. Or, as in the case of Justice Prosser, when they suspect you might merely stand in their way and do your job.
  Throw in a couple bucks. This one's important.
