where are the "DEMOCRATS" regarding Wisconsin
Where are they? Pelosi is on-board, she tweeted Eddy. Who else? Are they avoiding the media so their corporate masters don't get miffed?

2. Dick Durbin was the first
I hope more Democrats fall in line. I would like to hear from people like Jerry Brown and Barbara Boxer. The Vice President and a stronger statement by the President.

8. I have a feeling Biden is having a hard time keeping his mouth shut on this one.
But in his job he speaks for Obama, not from his heart... and Obama probably makes sure of that.

15. Keeping their ' powder dry '? Sounds just about right. Democrats use flintlock muskets while
republicans respond with a fleet of M1 Abrams tanks.

5. Durbin as well
the rest will follow... as Hartman likes to quip. we the people form the train and then, and ONLY THEN, they get on board

Expect POTUS to be among the last ones, unless Walker gets really stupid and forces hands...

Yes I could see Walker ordering some thugs... and a certain national guard being federalized to protect the protestors... of course that is an absolute worst case scenario... Oh and for that they wil leave the street and report for duty.

12. Organizing for America is mobilizing manpower for Wisconsin
and that is an organization that Obama essentially controls.
