It is interesting to see how this is going compared to New Jersey.  I don't think he is handling it any differently but the union response has been totally different.  I actually think their response is ham handed, uncivil and is only further damaging their credibility with the public.

At one point when the NJ legislature threatened to shut down the government over the changes Christie said go ahead.  I will go home, grab a beer and watch NBA games.  Just tell me when you are done.  Very direct, much more confrontational than the Wisconsin Governor has been and he got his way.  The unions are the ones turning this into a Greece moment and they will suffer much more for it in the long run than he will.
