Byron York(Washington Examiner) on he meltdown of Wisconsin Democrats:
"There's a measure that would require a photo ID for people to vote in Wisconsin. It's a move Democrats absolutely hate and Republicans fully support. If GOP lawmakers pass it -- and it might come up soon -- Democrats likely will be tearing out their hair in Illinois or wherever else they are hiding."

Dem Blunder in Wisconsin
Richard Pollock has it just about right when he writes...
The showdown in Madison pits pampered public employees against hard-pressed taxpayers. It portrays union workers as an angry mob against those seeking orderly legislative deliberation. It paints Democratic lawmakers as outlaws on the run, undermining the democratic process. It launched a national debate about the generous salaries and benefits for government workers during a time of economic shortages. And it showcased school teachers who abandoned their children in favor of narrow, partisan political gain.
This is a bad unraveling of a political campaign.
Indeed!
