They must have turned 3 or 4 GOP senators.

I doubt it but they probably think at this point they have public opinion on their side what with all the demonstrations etc. They will send in a sacrificial Dem to make up a quorum and let the vote go forward with the plan to use it as a club to beat the Republicans over the head. We’ll see if it works.

I don’t think they have turned any GOP senators. There was one wobbly one, Schultz, but the rest have become so incensed at the Dems leaving the state, that they won’t budge. Last I heard, Schultz had even agreed not to offer his amendment to limit the ending of collusive bargaining to 2013. It was also reported that he wouldn’t vote against the bill either. Schultz is trying to save himself from a recall. But, if he screws up this bill, he will face a challenge from his right.

No they haven’t. That’s why they’re saying they will return soon. they haven’t been able to break ANY of them.

Did you read the full article? Apparently the RATS now feel it will work to their benefit to let the bill pass.

I am not making this up.

If Gov. Walker and the Pubbies were really smart, they would make the Dems think they had enough Republican senators ready to cave just to get them to come back.
