Wisconsin’s Democratic Senators have decamped to Illinois, denying the Republicans and the governor a quorum. They say they won’t come back until union-busting’s off the table.
These are real Dems! God bless ’em all.

Yes they are real Democrats. If only there were more of them in other state legislatures, US House of Representatives, and US Senate. Oh, and also in the Obama Administration, including the President himself. All these state senators can do is hold on as a group and fight to not allow the bill to be voted upon by decamping to another state. The Governor has two choices:
1.) Either go to the State Supreme Court to convince enough justices to grant an injunction to force those state Senators to come back to Madison, WI
or
2.) “Give in” to the state senators demands of taking the union busting portion of the bill off the table.
