57. I am reminded of the term 'Being late to one's funeral.'

Regardless of the vote to destroy the collective bargaining rights of Unions I believe that it is now too late for President Obama to do much. That is too bad since it would have been a golden opportunity for the Democratic party and the country to show what he was really willing to to for labor.

If he ever had any intention of going to WI now it is too late. He could have done some good if he even connected on the phone with the protesters, but I guess that he had other things to do like meetings with Jeb Bush.

IMHO 2012 may be just be funeral that Obama is late to, but he will arrive there nonetheless given his current position of inaction.
