It doesn't look good, from what you've said. Your bargaining power will be precisely ZERO if you accept the new position under the current terms. If you want to negotiate with management, do it *before* you accept the position and get everything in writing (and print it out).
As others on the thread have mentioned, it looks like the main priority is to slash the labor budget and do more with less. I'd take the new, full-time position and start submitting resumes for other full time jobs. By time you land an interview, you'll probably have a few months experience at the full time position.
