Indiana Governor: Similar Circumstances, Different Tune
Compare Indiana to Wisconsin. In Indiana, the Republican dominated assembly (60 out of 100 seats) gets set to fast track “right to work” legislation and the Democrats flee to Illinois in order to deny the Republicans a quorum. Sounds like Wisconsin? Then the Republican Governor, Mitch Daniels, chimes in; except his message contrasts with that of Scott Walker- Governor Daniels response is to tell the Republican legislators to drop the right to work bill, and he adds that the Democrats have the right to express their views and this is not the year to take on the unions! Meanwhile, in Wisconsin Scott Walker continues his rampage by polarizing the state and bringing the state government to a grinding halt. Wow, what a contrast! Don’t you wish Scooter would just grow-up? Check out the following article on Indystar.com:
