The 14 Senate Democrats who are boycotting a vote on a controversial "union-busting" bill have left the state, a Wisconsin state senator said.

Good lord! They fled the state!?

They should be considered as effectly resigned from their seats.

The question is: what did Christie inspire?

Christie became more popular when he stood up to the teacher’s union. I’m sure a lot of politicians (on both sides of the aisle) noticed it too.

I’m convinced this is one of the reasons GOP politicians are starting to grow a pair when it comes to teachers’ unions.

They better not have used state funds or state owned vehicles to flee the state. If they did give them 24 hours to return and reimburse the state, or prosecute them for misuse of public funds.

Care to have some fun? Call and ask to be transfered to them. Jamming the hotel switchboard will make them unwanted guests in a hurry.

Private sector

Weren't Winston Churchill and Neville Chamberlain government employees?

I assume a lot of the other faces in this crowd are identifiable people. One of them looks a little like Joe Kennedy, Sr.
