Ridiculous. They were elected to do a job, not run away from it. What's with democrats running from their responsibilities when things don't go their way (thinking of the democrats in Wisconsin that fled the state to avoid the vote on collective bargaining).

"I'm taking my ball and going home! Wahhhhhh!"

Walking out is classic form of protest and civil disobedience.

Personally, I think they ought to drop their heads and raise their fists in the Black Power salute.
