The people of Wisconsin are learning a difficult but valuable lesson in the Scott Walker debacle. Voting Republican has serious consequences. Gov. Walker is using public employees to weaken the Democratic Party.

A recent Public Policy Polling survey suggested that Democrats not turning up to vote in November helped elect Gov. Walker. Something tells me they won't make that mistake again.

But this is far bigger than Wisconsin. This is a lesson the rest of us would do well to heed. When 2012 rolls around and we are wondering whether it is worth our while to go out and vote, remember Wisconsin!
