[quote:Anonymous Coward 25184915:MV8yMDExODk2XzMzODA4MDQ1XzhGQjg5RjQ3] [quote:Anonymous Coward 7061022:MV8yMDExODk2XzMzODA3MzIyXzFEQTMwMzZE] How do u feel about the GOP war on unions? I am surprised to hear any union worker vote republican. [/quote] Yes this is true... I know someone who won't vote republican simply because of the "right to work" here in Ohio that the Republicans are pushing. She is a union worker and that will knock @ 10 dollars off her pay. That is the only reason she is voting for Obama. Since it is personal, I didn't talk her out of it. [/quote]

I am a Union Boilermaker. I played the party line last election.
After a very long summer low in work, i finally got called for a job. I decided this morning on the drive in, i would not bring up politics. unlike here ,i have to see these guys every day for the next few months.
I didn't need to bring it up, it was the talk of the day. 15 men and not one for Obama.
All had watched the debate and the statement by Romney about his love of coal won every man. I was Surprised and shocked. We work on power plants and Obama's war on coal has already affected our lives !!
Not one, No one "on the fence" not one.
I won't be on here as much for awhile ( long drive , many hours) but I'll keep you posted.
The Coal Mining Union for the first time has not endorsed the Democrats. When Men are working and providing for their family's honestly a lot don't vote cause their working. Not This Time !!!! Just like me their mad as hell and not going to take it anymore.
