WI recall: Too close to call

DailyKos has a new poll out and the results are nerve-racking. Bottom line: too close to call. Read the whole thing here and do what they tell you to help out.

Meanwhile, TAPPED has a pretty good take on what's at stake in Wisconsin tomorrow:
These elections (and two next week) will determine whether Governor Scott Walker will retain a Republican state senate majority, and will also gauge the likelihood that he’ll face his own ouster in January. They’ll also provide a rare test case for a brand of populist, anti-corporate campaigning that activists often call for but many Democrats shy away from. These Democrats are using a class-based message in six districts red enough to have elected Republican state senators on the same day Barack Obama was elected president.
And here are some random tweets we like:
