UAW goes for Ned
Edited on Wed Aug-23-06 06:37 PM by Rose Siding
The Union official offers him 5K in PAK money. Ned refuses -could have been a tense moment, but the guy instead pledges 5,000 *people* to work towards his election, and that offer's enthusiastically accepted. This is a great clip. Ned says he's operating on the premise that Joe's the "defacto" Republican.

1. Thank you for sharing this. Webb in VA is also not accepting PAC or
special interest money.

What a different world it would be if our "representatives" in government represented our best interests and NOT the best interests of special interests!

The endorsement of the UAW is awesome. Walter Ruther must be looking down with a smile.
