Another "fail" for the Governator, even though it wasn't necessarily forseeable from his perspective... he just doubled the strength of his enemy. I'm assuming that Merle and Michonne's role in this incident killing walkers before they could kill the group leads to the grudging acceptance of both into the fold to some degree and Rick getting his sh*t together long enough to deal with this particular threat.
So.
You now have gone from fighting Insano-Rick, Glenn and... an 11 year old is the next most useful dude among the prison folk, to having to deal with Rick, Michonne, Merle, Daryl and Glen as the starting lineup. Not to mention, when she finds out that Gov lied and engaged in that naughty retribution she talked to him about, possibly Andrea.
That, ladies and gents, is not a big win.
