[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 980118, member: 1246"] Mitt Romney phoned Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker Tuesday evening and issued a statement congratulating him on his victory in the gubernatorial recall election. The two Republicans spoke after Walker was declared the victor, a campaign official said. In a message to the press, Romney predicted the results in the Wisconsin race would "echo beyond the borders" of the state, calling them a validation of small-government conservative politics. “I congratulate Scott Walker on his victory in Wisconsin. Governor Walker has demonstrated over the past year what sound fiscal policies can do to turn an economy around, and I believe that in November voters across the country will demonstrate that they want the same in Washington D.C.," Romney said. He continued: "Governor Walker has shown that citizens and taxpayers can fight back – and prevail – against the runaway government costs imposed by labor bosses. Tonight voters said ‘no’ to the tired, liberal ideas of yesterday, and ‘yes’ to fiscal responsibility and a new direction. I look forward to working with Governor Walker to help build a better, brighter future for all Americans." Alexander Burns [/QUOTE]
