Is the protest still going strong? I'm having a difficult time finding current news.

Also, regarding what Walker said - "let them protest, the media will eventually lose interest." = is the only power in protests the media coverage? I'd hate to think so.

1. Gov. Scott Walker needs to resign NOW! Admitting felonies on tape.

2. the power = ability to change hearts and minds
as soon as enough people think that Walker should negotiate, we win.
The power of the protest is to change enough hearts and minds.
