Anybody know what kind of district Cullen represents?

I don’t know, but I am betting that more than one elected Democrat is thinking that there could be real violence if they don’t stop their shenanigans.

I don’t know the Janesville district, but on doing a little checking, Hulsey was Dane County Board supervisor before running for the Assembly. Dane County is where Madison is located, so one would have to presume he is a very left of left lefty.

Janesville has one of the highest unemployment rates in the whole state. It’s been hard hit since the GM plant there closed a few years ago. There are a lot of private sector union members who are supporting Walker in this case. They’ve watched their pay and benefits cut and are not sympathetic to the leeches here. Only the hardcore Kool-aid drinkers are. btw, Janesville is also in Rep. Paul Ryan’s district.

Janesville is one of the biggest towns in far southern WI. It is just across the border from Rockford, IL where the senators were first found and videoed while hiding out at the Clock Tower Inn by the Rockford Tea Party people. And it's just a relatively short drive (40-45 min.?!) from Janesville up I-90 to the People's Republik of Madison. As others have said on this thread, it USED to be a big automotive manufacturing and other industrial town, but it has been hugely hit by job layoffs, etc. in recent years. I don't really know this for a fact, but it's likely that some of those car-manufacturing jobs either fled to Mexico, or another right-to-work state.

Janesville is working class. Not a lot of money. The one thing they had going for them was the GM factory, until GM had problems...

Cullen represents some of the same area that Congressman Paul Ryan represents. It is a right-center area.
