If you're talking about the leadership, on the other
hand, you are probably right.
What with elections coming up, both parties have been crying over the loss of
jobs to outsourcing, and giving lip service to some solution, but I doubt that
either one is sincere. Sincerity is a scarce commodity in an election year.
Some unions, especially law enforcement types, tend to vote Republican, but to
my knowledge, trade and labor unions usually vote the liberal ticket. Reagan?
After he busted the Air Traffic Controllers union he was on organized labor's
hate list.
