Walker, In Scripted Step Two Of Negotiating 101, Needs Shove Back

Scott Walker agrees to meet with Assembly Democratic legislative leaders after two months of "No," and giving notice - - "dropping the bomb" - - for the destruction of collective bargaining, Democratic accomplishments and public services as we know them.

Basically, Democrats are getting a meeting with a guy who has been behaving imperiously and speaking falsely (repeatedly) while saying, in effect, "I am destroying you. And have the power to do it."

Regardless of the meeting outcome - - and I don't care if Walker shows off his Charm School Leadership diploma with the full campaign-trail twinkle in his eye  - - the answer from voters has to be, "We won't negotiate to allow you to destroy us now, or more slowly, or more pleasantly. We are recalling and defeating you."
