This is AWESOME! Imagine, union money being spent AGAINST Democrats!

The more that the Democrats fight ANWR development and push enviro-lunacy treaties such as Kyoto, the faster that unions will rush to embrace us in the Republican Party.

At the very least, this means that union brass will have fewer funds to donate to Democratic candidates in the short term...

A long ways to go and a lot of bartering to be done……

And a lot praying on the part of the pro-drilling side won't hurt! Sure hope the Teamsters,along with GWB and Cheney will twist some arms on this, BIG TIME!

Hoffa nailed Kerry on that issue. Pressed him to be a Democrat, to do the will of the majority, not to filibuster. This is wonderful.

The Teamster radio spot I linked to above has been playing in West Virginia, Pennsylvania and perhaps elsewhere since June.

Glad to see they are expanding their campaign.
