Who is the real Jim Holperin? He’s a State Senator who ran to Illinois in order to hold up a budget vote and block our representatives from passing a balanced budget. Members of Tea Party caught up with Rockford Jim in Illinois, as you can see in the video below.

Meanwhile, the people who Rockford Jim Holperin was really representing, the unions, were costing Wisconsinites approximately 8 million dollars in damages and security costs with their protesting. The breakdown of costs is given here. By the way, notice how the Associate Press buries the real cost totals behind a misleading headline.
