Madison Senate Republican's changed their mind about punishing the Democrats.

Image via WikipediaMadison Senate Republican's decided against fining the Democrats and making their votes not count.  How disappointing.  It would have been more honest for the Republicans to stay true to their word and carried out their punitive threats.  Why would they want to change their mind if they were right in the first place?  Could it be that they actually realized how their actions look to the public?  Maybe there is hope for the Republican party's continued existence if they can cover up their true attitude on issues.

If Governor Walker would have made a threat, he would have carried it through despite any public opposition because he is at least true to his word even when he looks like a jerk.  The Senate Republicans should be honest like Governor Walker.
