IS THE POLITICAL TIDE TURNIN?

• Gov Scott Walker thought he had been elected dictator rather than in an office to serve the public, especially his constituents. However, in an article for the New York Times, Steven Greenhouse writes:  "Ruling that Republicans in the State Senate had violated the state’s open meetings law, a judge in Wisconsin dealt a blow to them and to Gov. Scott Walker on Thursday by granting a permanent injunction that voided a law curbing collective bargaining rights for many state and local employees."

• In a similar thrust of power, Grover Norquist was mentioned tonight by the media as one of the most dangerous men in the country who was not voted to office.   Knowing the books he has authored tells somethng about where his vast influence has taken us.  Authored two books Rock the House and Leave Us Alone – Getting the Government’s Hands Off Our Money, Our Guns, Our Lives

• A Bloomberg Commentary on Norquist is  important to read. Most amusing to watch, however, is the race to become a Republican Presidential candidate.  The rush to politically kill off opponents is amusing to watch.  Most of them are so busy studying how to be a winning candidate, they no longer can remember what they have said to get there.
