Prosser: I survived 'nuclear blast'
A tired but upbeat David Prosser declared that he had "weathered a nuclear blast" about 1:40 a.m. Wednesday.
"We're optimistic. We expect later today to bring good results," Prosser told a handful of supporters who had stayed until the wee morning hours at the Seven Seas restaurant in Delafield.
"This is truly an historic election," Prosser said. "There is little doubt there's going to be a recount in this race, no matter who comes out on top -- tomorrow or today or whenever. But I'm very pleased we have sustained the most difficult assault on a person's character in the whole history of the Wisconsin judicial system. We're still in this race, I've weathered the nuclear blast and I'm still standing.
"There is no question about my gratitude to the people of Wisconsin" Prosser said, to applause and shouts of "Ten more years."
