Sometimes negotiation isn't an option.
Alot of that depends on the reasonableness of the people you are dealing with.
You should take a look at what Markell got...
'Reasonable' wasn't the theme of the Repubs in Wisconsin, either.
What did he get?
$25 million a year in concessions may, or may not, solve the problems in Delaware, but they would have been all but useless in Wisconsin with a deficit in the billions that needed to be addressed now. Comparing the actions of a governor in a state with a marginal deficit to one in a state with real problems is a bit like comparing the guy that did not get a pay raise with the guy who lost his job. What works for one will not work for the other.
