They have lots of mobility:
New York Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is reportedly pitching a plan for an increased “millionaire’s tax” aimed at 75-85 thousand New Yorkers making $1 million or more a year.

…It is really hard to force your body to stay awake without all those stimulants.
…first of all don’t do it next door to the house of a reporter.
…second of all don’t involve police, (the police union denies it).
…and finally don’t do it in the internet age because you can’t hide or disguise a crowd of people acting likethugs from the net anymore. Nor can you hide bank records.
If you want to know why Unions are not popular like they used to be, here it is.
I’ve talked a bit about Rand Paul and the education he is getting now that he is the republican candidate for Senate instead of a Republican gadfly. It is an education that I was surprised he needed to get (although in fairness Mr. Dukakis Paul did make his own problems) but he is learning fast.
With the defeat of Bob Bennett we are now seeing the other side of the coin as the excellent Jay Nordlinger reminds us:
You know Sen. Bob Bennett, the Utah Republican who has been pushed aside by more sparky conservatives? You know all the good press — good liberal press — that Bennett is getting now? About how sensible and decent and patriotic he is? Such an admirable legislator? Do you remember Bennett’s ever getting such press, before he was upended by his fellow conservatives in Utah?
I don’t either.
Of course he doesn’t, as long as Bob Bennett allows the media to paint the tea parties and republicans as unreasonable ideologues he will be lionized by the press. If he had won the nomination he would just be another evil republican and worth ignoring.
Watch him become a regular commentator/guest any time the networks want to attack the tea parties.
