This is a GREAT story for the GOP to nationalize. Democrats look: weak, pathetic, cowardly.

Other points to emphasize:
*Fleeing from their jobs. Wouldn't it be nice if the hard-working American laborer could have this luxury to go on the lam....and still get paid!
*Gang of crybabies- round 'em up and have them explain to their bossess, the people, why they didn't show up for work. (Message to the voter: What would happen to you if you didn't show up for work? You'd be fired. Do the same thing to the cowardly Democrats who ran from their jobs and their responsibilities)
*Theme: "John Doe, Democrat, rather than working, fled to New Mexico to do his job. Does that sound responsible to you?"
*Dems running away from their responsibility to the people: legislature trying to fix the budget, improve education from the people, and Dems flee the scene.

I don't think so. The stupid Idaho House (Republican) should have staged a similar walkout instead of letting Kempthorne (Republican) beat them into raising taxes. (They talked about it and then wimped out.)

I'm really annoyed with Republicans at the moment.
