>> Perhaps the governor did not feel the RTW was a slam dunk with the people of Indiana at this time. He concedes it, and the democrats still won’t come back.

But wait... the LEGISLATURE represents the people of Indiana, that being their JOB and all, and THEY felt the timing was right. Are you saying the newly elected legislature is out of touch with the people’s desires, whereas the governor first elected in 2005 knows them better?

>> Rules are different in Indiana, so you devise a different strategy.

The evidence is that Daniels’ strategy is a big FAIL. Sorry... I’m just going by what I’m seeing with my own eyes. Having gone soft once, they will walk all over him.

I am not familiar with Indiana politics but it seems to be more conservative than the others in that belt. I have not seen where the legislature has backed down. If the Governor wants to play patsy let him. Wouldn’t he still sign what reaches his desk........

Hey, the people obviously didn't care enough because they didn't give the Republicans a constitutional majority (enough to call a Quorum).

What happened is the people decided to play headgames with the legislature so they gave the Republicans enough seats to pass any law they want, but they gave the Democrats enough seats to gum up the works.

You got a problem with the will of the people discuss it with them during the election.
