The whiff of compromise is in the air.

I will believe it when I see it. After what the mob did to Glenn Grothman, they would tear Cullen limb from limb unless he entered in disguise.

I wonder how “civil” the Left will be toward him.

Questions:

Where are the police to protect the Republican Senators from the mob (silly question)?

Why wasn't the Democrat Senator detained when he returned to the state to be delivered to the Senate chamber?

Sounds like Cullen was inching in this direction a week ago...

Cullen sees way to end senators' hideout

State Sen. Tim Cullen of Janesville spoke from his "undisclosed location in northern Illinois" on Monday, saying he has proposed a way out of the stalemate that has kept him and other Democrats out of the Senate chamber for five days.

On the Indana front, Mitch Daniels and the republicans are mocking the dems in song. House Speaker docked their pay and told them to come back to work act like grown ups. The local media has turned on the dems as well.

I would think that there is no solidarity in the Urbana Comfort Inn now and there are alot of dems who now wished they never pulled this stunt.

...and the goal of getting Wisconsin moving again is shared by everyone.

Yeah, right. Out of the mouths of libtards come self-evident LIES.

Wow. There are still balls in America, seen in how the republicans have held their ground in this.

Imagine if America got its balls back.

Wow.

"The Democrat wants to know how it will affect schools, municipalities, and health care. He says the sticking point is still the proposal to strip public workers of most of their collective bargaining rights.”

IDIOT! Nobody's asking you to vote "yes," just SHOW UP!

I think Cullen was sent back by the Dems merely to stall for time.

Democrat State Senator Tim Cullen, who represents labor union interests in the 15th Senate District...

Too bad the non-union constituents have no representative there.

Dear Wife of Wisconsin Senator (insert name),

It must be difficult having your husband in another State for political reasons, moving from place to place. It's a good thing that his 'special friend' has been able to support him and relieve his tension during these long days away.

A flurry of Twitter messages late Tuesday night heralded the return of Democrat State Senator Tim Cullen, who represents labor union interests in the 15th Senate District surrounding Janesville, Wisconsin.

And I had always assumed he represented the entire constituency in the 15th Senate District.

Imagine my embarrassment.

They need to get him to the capital immediately to fulfill the required quorum and vote the bill into law. If Walker is waiting for all 14 to return, it will only make it harder to contain the MSM and union bosses from derailing the vote. The dem doesn't have to vote, just sit in his seat and be there to get the bill passed.

” Democrat State Senator Tim Cullen, who represents labor union interests in the 15th Senate District “

Sweet. The first honest description of a democrat in ages.
