Union leaders are having trouble selling Democratic candidate Sen. Barack Obama to some of its members in key battleground states.

Link to rest.

Then they will get four more years of what I hope has been a good eight for them.

The article is quite silly, really.

Those union members who are hung up about Obama's race, guns, and most importantly, abortion, are probably Republicans who will never vote for Obama anyway, and probably haven't pulled the lever for any Democrat since the 1980s. Especially if they're still hung up about abortion and other cultural issues.

And WI, PA, and MI are in the midst of turning into safe Obama states anyway.

Much ado about nothing.

Hope that they get four more or hope that the previous 8 were good or both?

Bradley effect been saying it all along and getting hammered by the left for saying it.....hmmmmmmm

Can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Don't call me a racist I wanted Condi Rice and Mitt Romney on the 2008 Republican ticket....this is not their election.....2012 hopefully is.

McCain should have picked Rice as the running mate but either way the people/media will tear her apart.
