Actually, the Dems fleeing to avoid the vote is a time-honored political ploy - When Lincoln was in the Illinois Senate he and his fellow WHIGs went out a statehouse window because the Democrats had locked the doors!
The nerve of those Wisconsin senators leaving the state as a parliamentary tactic to prevent a vote. Don’t they realize that the only acceptable parliamentary tactics for senators to prevent a vote are fillibusters and anonymous holds?

I say more power to them. We need more politicians who are willing to do anything necessary to prevent the erosion of citizens’ rights.

Wisconsin is in full rebellion - and the recall is for the GOPers.
