Not surprising since many labor unions are connected with organized crime and the mafia and especialy the infamous AFL/CIO and the TAMSTERS who have used strong armed tactics agisnt those who oppose them

Romney had his own issues. Like the ROMNEY CARE health plan. Not to mention that being a Mormon would have had him raked over the coals for all the weird stuff they do - like (not so) secret rituals where they baptize the dead and "holy underwear" and the part about when you die you become a God of your own planet with a harem of women. Actually that sounds pretty cool, being a guy and all.

Lets make him an offer he can't refuse

Bribes, aren't they illegal?

I'll be happy to chair the Maryland chapter of Just Say NO to Specter in 2010. They're our neighbors, so I'm just being a neighborly Marylander.

Anonymous: interesting thoughts, I hate to agree with you. People compared the Romney situation to that of JFK being Roman Catholic (fears that he'd take orders from the Pope, etc.) Romney would have been skewered, and primarily -- especially -- because he's a religious Conservative.

Still, it never ceases to blow me away that he was the Gov. of wackjob liberal Taxachusetts. In a parallel universe, perhaps he's the Pres now (w/Jindal or Palin as VEEP) and battling like hell with Congress to cut taxes across the board esp. at the corporate level... I see him vetoing that omnibus bill, I see him encouraging anti-Congressional Tea Parties from coast to coast... I see him maintaining human embryonic stem cell funding restrictions... I see him expanding Guantanamo... I see him setting stealth bombers on high alert targeting Iran's nuclear facilities... I see him getting the Justice Dept to investigate Barney Frank and Chris Dodd over Fannie/Freddie collusion...

One can dream, can't one.

This along with his $500 million earmark for NIH facilities in Bethesda, MD was enough for him to turn traitor. The thing is the unions are going to dump him during the next election for the next Dem that comes along. It is so sad he doesn't see the Libs for who they are.

But, we see who he is, JUDAS.

Specter has to go down in 2010. Every conservative should donate to his primary opponent. I know the CFG will be gunning for him.

Go CFG Go! They rock and had a decent success record in 2008, given the givens.

And can these union bosses really "promise" this? You know some of these guys would never, ever vote Republican, just because D has always run in the family. And, they might be discounting the union members who hate their unions. My husband was one of those.

A very risky proposition for Sphincter, indeed.

It's just for the primary, anyway. After that, all the union people go back to their 'rat candidate anyway. Not just a traitor, a weak fool.

I've linked to your post from Blogwatch Voter Intimidation

Bill em George and Spector make clear what they think of the little guy and the sense of fair play. It is all about them, the union to rake in more bucks and Spector to keep his job... all at the expense of the 'working man', or more accurately 'funding fodder'.

This Orweillian propagandist writes: "ease rules favoring secret-ballot elections to unionize workplaces." making it seem a yes vote gives the workers more freedom. It doesn't. How would unionists and entrenched politicians like 'Guido and Marcellos' looking over their shoulders as they make their choices or cast votes?

This is just another action to embed union socialism into our society. Nobody is entitled to a job. It is a contract between an individual and a company. Labor is simply a commodity that should have price set by availability and quality of product in the marketplace instead of having these labor cartels establish an inflated artificial price. Unionization and federal regulation is what makes the domestic auto industry uncompetitive.

Having someone watch you vote allows intimidaton later. Some worker votes no but keeps the job. The workplace will not be so pleasant for that person.

Who cares about AS? The REAL issue here is the legalized thuggery and intimidation that is the "Free Choice Act": it confounds me, even in the through-the-looking glass world of the United States of Obama, that semi-sentient people don't see this bill as what it really is, the "No-Choice Act."

Arlene is the quintessential girlyman. I heard him on the radio trying to explain why he sold out on the stimulus bill.

All I really heard was that he's been bought and paid for by his DemocRat cronies, who appear to be his new best friends.

Arlene will sell our country down the river on this union scam, you watch [and I say this as a twice elected statewide union officer].
