The Party's Over in Milwaukee County

You'd think these guys were attending their own funeral.

"It's not going to be a pretty picture," said Supervisor Mark Borkowski during a review of a series of programs for which the county's 2011 budget assumes millions in state aid that might not materialize. "Milwaukee County is just like a sitting duck" about to get blasted by bad budget news, he said.

Democrats representing the bulk of Milwaukee County at the state Capitol "don't have any power" as a result of the elections, said Supervisor John Weishan Jr.

..."We have to prepare ourselves that we are all by ourselves in the dark here," Weishan said. "No one is going to come to our rescue."

Yah, well, Walker's been telling them for EIGHT YEARS that it can't continue.

But "listening" ain't their strong suit.
