God,will I be glad when this is over. Menino is so far in over his head it's hysterical.
RAT mayor, RAT convention, RAT state.
These people have never heard of "the Blue Flu"???
Oh my, they ARE in for a bout.
What? Huh? I thought the D party was all about unity, not dividing people into warring special interest groups. Tee hee.
This is TOO precious!! Democrat elected officials turning democrat constituencies (labor, minorities, 'poor') against each other in the city hosting their convention on the eve of that convention. Of course it won't get the press it deserves, but that's no suprise.
You forgot about the RAT candidate(s).

"hastily" suggests that the party bosses have been
talking to the union, but finally realized they aren't
just going to get this problem to go away in time. The
quadrennial PR extravaganza is threatened.
"police union is putting its own concerns" means that
the tribe has decided to marginalize some members, who
are now no longer part of "us".
"minorities" sounds like they had a junior hack intern
at the Washington Post write the copy for the statement.
All told, very entertaining.
Flipper John can not now afford to have refused to cross a picket line last month and now cross it. The union will be forced to fold!! Of course, the cause of folding may be the city folding and giving them whatever they want!!!
