"All I know is that we're not talking, we're wasting valuable time about collective bargaining, which I don't ever remember being a part of last election's discussion what so ever."

"You know, to me, this just looks like the classic overreach."

"That's correct. And you know what? I can tell my colleagues are very good and listening to ... I can't tell you how they're going to vote." (Answering a question related to the Democrats needing three Republicans to join their cause.)

"We have, you know, the governor taking a phone call on a prank... and umm... you know, you wonder why people don't have any faith in the political process."

1. Interesting. Looks as if Walker just lost one vote for sure. And Shultz burned some bridges here

also. This could be the crack in the Republican wall.

2. What would be BEAUTIFUL is for 2 or 3 of the REPUBLICAN Senators

to leave the state.

3. No, that would be barely fair. Beautiful would be 6-8

of them shifting away from their neocon, teabagging gov.

4. A point of interest here... some of these guys are married to

school employees. I don't want to be quoted for sure(this is off the top of my head, but pretty sure), I can tell you that one of the wavering guys is married to a school superintendent, one is married to a CESA administrator(our Cooperative Education Service Agency, a state education system entity for those of you out of state) and I believe one of the Fitzgeralds ( I think the senator, but not sure) is married to a school counselor.

And a LOT of these Repubs have been in office a LONG time. What allegiance, really, do they owe to a two month rookie?

I am hopeful.

5. That is hopeful.
