What have democrats gained by this debacle?
The Wall Street Journal reported:
The leader of the 14 Wisconsin Senate Democrats who left the state last month to block legislation that would curb public-employee union rights said the senators plan to return “in the relatively near future,” because negotiations with the governor have failed.
The Wisconsin standoff, which drew thousands of demonstrators to occupy the capitol in Madison for days at a time, has come to highlight efforts in other states to address budget problems in part by limiting the powers and benefits accorded public-sector unions.
Sen. Mark Miller said he and his fellow Democrats intend to let the full Senate vote on Gov. Scott Walker’s “budget-repair” bill, which would also limit public unions’ collective bargaining rights.H/T Gateway Pundit.

Obama and the Dems in Washington take note; having the courage of one's conviction¬s and fighting for the just cause can pay off. It's important to let the people know you believe in something, other than one's own re-electio¬n.
