LOL, The Daily Kos steps in it here (Huge, Massive Hypocrisy)

As we know, Prosser actually won the election by more than 7000 votes, so what did the left do, they called for a Million Dollar recount! Below is what they wrote when they had a short, 200 vote lead.
Be sure and note the last sentence in this "hypocritical" article.

Fiscally responsible Prosser should forgo $$$ WI recount

So here's where we are, now that all the votes are in:

JoAnne Kloppenburg is ahead by a fairly comfortable margin of just over 200 votes, and should be officially declared the winner next week. I say comfortable because the state's chief administrator of elections himself says that "Recounts usually don't make a difference,". However, David Prosser is free to request a recount, because in Wisconsin, you can request a recount provided you will pay for it yourself. The "less than half a percent threshold" only determines if the state will pay for a recount or not. But it is not the threshold for any recount request. So it is important to understand that a recount is not, by law, mandatory in Wisconsin under any circumstance.
In our present circumstance, unless Prosser is willing to pay for the recount himself, it will cost the state of Wisconsin well over one million dollars!!! But again - a recount is not mandatory. So Justice David Prosser should get right on the Walker bandwagon, show everyone he cares about wasting taxpayer money, and concede the election.
Or shell out the costs himself.
Right? Sorry for the short diary but I feel this is a great issue to bludgeon the hypocrites with.
