When are they going to do the job they were elected to?

 

[hubrat]

When the general assembly vote left out 25 Democrats, 1.5 million Wisconsins didn't get a vote.

They are representing the people who elected them. That is their work.

I haven't seen any polls from their respective districts, but as long as their constituencies support what they are doing then you can make the case that they are doing their jobs.

Yeah, but they cant vote "present".

That's gonna be some split. I am looking for polls...

"EAGLE RIVER, WI – Members of the Vilas County Republicans met Monday evening, February 21, 2011, and voted unanimously to condemn our Senator, Jim Holperin, for leaving the Senate floor, vacating the Wisconsin State Capitol, and for fleeing to Illinois."

I'm not sold on the results of this poll (primarily because Dick Morris is involved), but assuming that it's accurate then the people of Wisconsin support the economic changes in this bill but oppose the union busting portions. Given that the Unions have already signaled their willingness to accept the economic changes wouldn't it make sense to compromise and give the people what they want?

Most definitely, but the governor and his $upporter$ seem to have a different kind of "sense".

I thought I heard that the Dick Morris's poll is only like 550 people......(Laura Ingram said) such a small number!!

Senators or Representatives going into hiding is nothing new, this happened in Texas a few years ago to protest redistricting. There it was the Republicans who fled the capitol because they feared the redistricting would reduce their numbers.
