Gov Christie of NJ has become a sort of folk hero because he's taken on public unions and out-of-control spending.
Wisconsin Democrats have become nationally hated for their support of union priviledge on irresponsible spending.

Is the GOP establishment paying attention? The tide has turned and we need to drastically cut government. The Constitution gives us limited government. Let's get back to it.

When no one else was doing it. He was smart to be first. Now the socialists are awake, and are sending more foot soldiers and fighting harder than they did here in NJ. Not that they didn't fight in NJ, but now they know it's ON.

NJ is looking very closely at what’s happening in Wisconsin according to news accounts.

If one thing is to be learned by the New Jersey experience, it's that government officials should stand their ground in the face of petulant, spoiled public workers who have naive, unrealistic expectations.

Christie has a lot of flaws, but I gotta give him a ton of credit for one big thing. I never thought I'd see this, but within his first 6-9 months in office public school teachers were effectively reduced in terms of public respect to a level somewhere down around lawyers and arsonists.

This approach should be repeated all over the U.S. What changed the whole tone in New Jersey was the ridiculous expectations of public employees who insisted on getting pay raises and making no contributions to their own medical insurance plans . . . even as more and more of the taxpayers who paid their salaries were losing their jobs, their homes and their own medical coverage.

I'm still looking for proof that the Wisconsin Democrats are becoming Nationally hated. There is no outrage in the Press reports, there is no reporting of the actual costs that the Teacher's would assume to benefit themselves, there is no concern about the Wisconsin Budget or the Taxpayers that would have to fund the shortfall, there is only sympathy for the po wittle Teachers...

Every Commie that ever drew a breath knew when you control the information, you control the people. Outside of Fox News and Talk Radio, the big boys are laying down for the Obamamites like they always do.

Obama has shown himself to be the agitator we always thought he was. Too bad 65 Million Voters fell for his BS in 2008.

It's the same old same old, mean Republicans vs the poor down trodden hard working Teachers. If 50,000 people show up at the counter protest tomorrow, my opinion might change.
