“THAT is my concern.” I think perhaps it’s ok to be concerned but think about it. Worst case scenario - it’s ruled null and void and the WI senate has to vote again. WHOOPSIE! Will the WI Dems flee the state a second time? The GOP should make sure it has a contingency plan for when this happens. I wish the GOP team in WI would consider moving to D.C. in 2012!
In a word, "yes", they would just leave town again to delay the vote, hoping a Recall Election gets them a few more seats in the Senate. That's what the Unions and the DNC are trying to do, by circulating the petitions amongst die-hard Union Members, and the homeless, to get it out there where the vote COULD give them the near-Majority, or even a Majority back to scuttle any further efforts to allow people freedom to choose or opt-out of Union Dues/Union Membership.
