MADISON, Wis.—They call themselves the Cuddle Puddle. They did not come up with the name. There are 10 of them, and they were among the first people to start camping out in the Capitol building.

"We were all lying down in the sleeping bags," says CJ Terrell, an unofficial spokesman for the cuddlers, "and somebody said, 'They've got a cuddle puddle going on.' And we liked it."

"We didn't know each other before this happened," says Tom Bird, like Terrell a University of Wisconsin grad student.

"Most of us met between 10 and two days ago," says Terrell. He and Bird became Facebook friends only this week.
