12. This article is delish

But many have wondered why the governor, who signed SB5 on March 31, took so long to publicly call for a compromise.

"I am utterly perplexed as to why the Republicans have waited this long to come to the table," said state Sen. Nina Turner, a Cleveland Democrat. "After months of playing politics with peoples' paychecks, their new-found spirit of compromise seems a bit late."

Kasich says his timing has nothing to do with efforts to repeal the law, or with a recent Quinnipiac poll that shows the measure being defeated by a double-digit margin.

"This is not an effort that is being put forward because we fear we're going to lose," Kasich said.

The Quinnipiac poll, released in late July, showed voters favoring a repeal of SB5, 56-to-32-percent -- a 24 point margin.

Fugger saw the results in Wisconsin :rofl:

"He must've gotten the latest poll results," said Ohio Democratic Party chairman Chris Redfern. "It's always good to have converts to the movement."

34. The problem IS compromise........
I hope labor WILL NOT compromise on this. Repeal the fucking bill and you can negotiate something new from a position of STRENGTH. Any compromise on this miscarriage of justice will STILL be bad for the working class.

The problem with unions is usually the leadership and the labor aristocracy. They're so tied into the system that they're ALWAYS more conservative than the membership. They have to be watched and pushed at all times or they will sell you out.

10. Here you go
http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2011/08/ohio_governor_aks_union_leader.html
<snip>
Gov. John Kasich backtracked on Senate Bill 5 on Wednesday, asking union leaders to negotiate a compromise on the collective bargaining law he championed and end efforts to repeal it.

While the Republican leader made clear he wants a voter referendum on SB5 to go away, Kasich did not specifically outline provisions of the multi-faceted law that he is willing to lose.

Kasich held a news conference to publicly ask union leaders opposed to SB5 to meet with him and other Republican leaders at 10 a.m. Friday at his office building. He also put his request in writing, sending a letter to We Are Ohio, the anti-SB5 group.

"We are now standing here saying to people, 'bring your grievances to us. We will look at them,'" said Kasich, who was joined at the news conference by fellow Republicans, House Speaker William G. Batchelder and Senate President Tom Niehaus. "Why would people say 'I'm not going to talk?'

17. When you stand up to bullies, they back off. I hope the President
is paying attention. All this 'they won't let me do it' garbage is pure nonsense. Every knows how to deal with bullies, who are usually cowards to begin with.

Now, let's the President start pushing some legislation that benefits the people and watch what happens if he makes it clear he has the people behind him and he will not back down and will use their refusal to work for the people against them in the election.

Good for the Wisc Dems who refused to cave to Republican bullies, and to the people there and in Ohio.

24. That is why I believe that Wisconsin was a win for the Democrats whether
they flipped the senate or not. Standing up is a win! Go Cheeseheads! Lead the Way!

28. Wisc definitely was a huge win. All they need now is one
Repub to come over and vote with them and that totally diminishes Walker's power. Even he appears to realize it as he too has announced being ready to talk to Democrats.

Now I hope everyone will take a lesson from this and start getting things done. There really is not excuse such as 'they won't let me do it'. You MAKE them 'let you do it'. But of course, it has to be something you want.

30. There's a great fight back by Floridians to the robocalls
from Rick Scott. Hope someone posts Rachel's video - a progressive group is allowing folks to send their own messages to Scott - freaking hilarious.
