the sell-out assholes they are. If the AFL-CIO's State Fed and PHilly CLC hadn't displayed an amazing amount of political cowardice by endorsing Specter, their voter turnout machine could have guaranteed victory. Win or lose, I hope the AFL-CIO bureaucrats feel like the cowardly dickheads they truly are. Unions are the only voice the working man has-- the continued incompetence, selfishness and cowardice of union misleaders has been dragging the rest of working America down for the last 30 years.

1. It's time for a major political/labor reorganization in this country
The Dem hacks/AFL-CIO bureaucrats haven't got the guts, vision or will to win this scoiety back from the extreme right.

2. No, Hoeffel needed to lose
Did you notice he didn't try that hard?

He's lining himself up for a BIG victory in 2006.
Target: Santorum

Hoeffel and Specter in the Senate for PA? I like that.

3. He did too try hard
He toured the whole state, shook a zillion hands, and listened carefully to my recommendations for changing Schedule C of the tax code.

5. He fought like a motherfucker
He really tried hard to win this thing. Not enough Dems supported him so he had like 50$ name recognition to Specter's 100%. The pro-life hypocrites still supported Specter but not enough liberals and labor supported Hoeffel.

And I heard Barb Hafer was gearing up to take down Santorum in a major showdown in 2006. The Republicans are gonna pour their Halliburton oil money into our state.

4. Hoeffel will win in 2006
I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking this.
