He sounds fat.

A) WHO?

B) Sounds like he's just mad that the other Democrats in Wisconsin don't like him very much. When a group of coworkers dislike you, it's usually because you're difficult to work with.

Common sense strikes a blow to partisan politics!

Sandlot baseball sucks when the only kid with a ball and glove storms home after being snubbed his turn at bat- and takes his baseball and glove with him.

M-O-O-N. That spells "close enough for me."

WI has gone permanently to the Dark Side anyway. No big loss overall.

I'll always think fondly (Fond du Lac?) of Cadott.

Guy serves 1 term after a 22 year absence and thinks he should be put in charge? Entitled prat.

Member of the Wisconsin Senate and part of the Wis14 gets his nose out of joint over not getting what he wants from Mark Miller so he's left the caucus and is publicly mulling declaring himself an Independent?

Um, okay.

Wellstone is still dead, Wisconsin has already gone to the dogs and Russ aint ever coming back. Do what ya like.

/Dead to me.

Remember when "moderate" used to stand for "sensible centrist?" More and more it just means "amoral douchebag with no real convictions and a sense of superiority." Take this guy.

So the breakdown is now 16Rep, 16DDem, 1Ind
This guy is going to be the tie breaking vote for many many votes. You can bet this was a power-grab.

Wait, wait... a grown person, a politician, is acting like a petulant child because he's not getting what he wants? And the tag is [Cool]?

WTF, schlubmitter?

uhh...

point out the common sense part of this story would you?

/guy sounds like an ass. he blew his party's majority over petty personal issues.
//guess we know what his priorities are.

Craptastic: A) WHO?

He's not personally an important national figure, but he did just lose the Wisconsin Senate Democrats the majority that they were striving for through all those recall elections, so yeah, this is kind of a big deal.

Did he blame it on the joos?

Janesville, I am disappoint.

"I'm going to let something petty like my hurt ego become more important thant the values and goals that I was elected on because screw you little people I represent the cool kids wont let me sit at their table"

Leaving the Democratic Party.

What a great morning to have the realization that instructing my children to emulate those who lead us would probably be a death blow to their lives, socially and professionally. We've honestly begun to elect people to lead us based on things without tangible proof or substance, people that most of us would shiat bricks at having to work with daily. Can you imagine sitting next to this guy day after day and not wanting to kick him in the balls?

"I'm taking my ball and going home" because he didn't get to cherry pick the cool committee he wanted to be on? Damn, that's some grade A junior high school attitude he has. Might as well quit the marching band, too, unless he gets to be first trombone.

Isn't the WI Senate out of session until after the next election? What difference does it make who holds power if there's nothing to do?

M-O-O-N, that spells Cullen

don't you mean Dim party?

Frank Zappa was right about life.

Typical Lib. Not getting his way and then taking his ball and going elsewhere. About time he woke up and realized he should be doing what his constituents want and not his own personal agenda.

Can you say term limits? This guy has been in elected office since 1974. I don't care what his party affiliation is that is too long.

State politics is f*cked up.

"Morning, Alfred. We're looking for a man we heard might be in this part of the country. Name is Tom Cullen. Here's a likeness."

He tried to negotiate with Republicans while the rest of the Democrats were busy hiding in their fruitless attempt to block a vote. And he's friends with a Republican senator.

When you act like a butthurt girlfriend and start doing the passive-aggressive things described in the article, it should come as no surprise that you might get dumped.

Sumo Surfer: And he's friends with a Republican senator.

THE HRORRARR

FETCH ME A FAINTING COUCH

Blathering Idjut: Remember when "moderate" used to stand for "sensible centrist?" More and more it just means "amoral douchebag with no real convictions and a sense of superiority." Take this guy.

Centrism isn't sensible.

But I agree that the standard for faking it has fallen.

If the slur fits.....

Makes sense. The DPW is basically a gang of self-serving careerists.

Is it me or does he resemble Mitch McConnell from the chin down?

WhiskeySticks: trivial use of my dark powers: Frank Zappa was right about life.

Are you talkin when he said "Ram it up your poop chute"?

CORNHOLE!

More like "you guys didn't give me what I wanted so I'm going to be a big baby and leave".

"Tim Cullen explains his break with Wisconsin Senate Democrats"

Or, in two words:


"HAIL ANTS REPUBLICANS"

Enjoy your Stockholm Syndrome, asshat.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

The only Dim "Victory" of the recall campaign just went out the window!

When Republicans leave the GOP, it's because they realize the Republicans are derptarded crazy and their politics don't match their rhetoric.

When Democrats leave the Democratic Party, apparently it's because they're crybabies.

State Sen. Tim Cullen of Janesville announced Tuesday that he is leaving the Democratic caucus after being snubbed on committee assignments, erasing the Democrats' new majority in the Senate.

Yeah yeah yeah - and when a Democrat posts on Fark - nobody listens.

Didn't even read the article, did you? More like self-interested prat attempts to create leverage to get what he wants. This isn't politics, its some guy trying to force his way up the ladder a bit.
