I don’t think there’d be much friction among SEIU members. The smart American ones have turned against the Marxist ones. When it’s a matter of there being no bread on the table, it’s less about the union membership and more about survival.

This is what I’m talking about relictele. For all conservatives it’s time to take the gloves off and load up on the enemies of Liberty.

DITTO that. Been saying that before GWB left office.

There is something very phony about these rank and file SEIU members in their purple shirts supporting Brown. For a reason(s) I don’t know, I believe this is a put up job by the SEIU leadership that is supporting Cloakly.

Me, too. I see it as a means to immunize the SEIU following their antics in the coming days.

My husband always says the rookie cop who goes to a bar fight always has to take a prisoner to establish his authority. I see Mr Brown has the same philosophy.

Uhm... Since many in the SEIU seems to be on board with Brown, won’t this create some friction?

Like leaked emails, maybe?

I believe the national support he has received has him quite pleasantly surprised. The turf is real and he is up to the challenge. God Speed Senator Brown.

Not too sure that the current AG in MA or of the US will really care.

I don’t know... they risk a lot if they’re doing that. The pics might give ‘demonstration effect’ for union members (not only SEIU members) who are on the fence. The SEIU leaderships are clearly for the Dhim.

The guys in the SEIU on board with Brown are bucking their union leadership. I don’t see why they would have a problem with it.

I want all Republican candidates to take note: this is how you fight and WIN against Dems. For too long, the Dems got away with cheating their way to victory because the GOP was too afraid to call them out on it.

Brown has exposed the ugly manner in which the Dems operate and if more Republicans do this, the Dem party can eventually be whittled down to becoming insignificant.

Win or lose this race will send a very chilling message to every Democrat who heretofore believed they were in a “safe” seat. if they are still dumb enough to vote for this reckless Obamacare then they should expect to find other employment soon.

Win or lose Coakley and the Obama administration have already lost what should not have been a remotely close contest in a very heavy Democratic state.

Oh My! It involves the SEIU!!!
This Breaking News—–
FOX News Boston reported:

BOSTON – Republican Senate hopeful Scott Brown has filed a complaint with the State Ethics Commission after a report that a union backing rival Martha Coakley used state resources to urge workers to volunteer for Coakley’s campaign.

The report by FOX25 said the Service Employees International Union used state computers and e-mail addresses to direct state employees to volunteer for Coakley, the Democratic state attorney general.

Coakley’s campaign referred questions to the attorney general’s office. A spokeswoman said the attorney general’s office has received the letter from Brown’s attorney and will review it before commenting.

The SEIU did not immediately return a call for comment.
