John Thune: “Senator Thune and I come here.”

It's an economic frustration.

I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

The only conclusion one can draw is that the Democrats have concluded that it is good politics for them not to allow the Republicans to ‘get a victory’ or the president to ‘get a victory’ in the middle of a political season.

Odds are we plan on being here next week," said Thune.
