#1 The union, which endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, now endorses Ellison -- who is combating allegations of antisemitism.

They're not the brightest bulbs, are they?

#2 They're not the brightest bulbs, are they?

The 'rank and file' is slowly coming to understand that, especially the younger ones.

Could get interesting in a year or so.

#4 The AFL-CIO isn't a union. More than anything it is a lobbying rganization. Also as unions in the private sector continue their own decline the AFL-CIO will be dominated by the unions in the public sector. And the public sector unions are little more than wings of the Democratic Party. But in fairness one can also say that the Chamber of Commerce is a wing of the Republican Party

#5 If you listen to Ellison speak he touts the same leftist/socialist meme that is very attractive to the socialist left/communist, and the old guard Deomcrats from the 70's. He is well spoken and reminds me of #44.
On the other hand, he has made a lot of incendiary statements as well.
I think he would be a perfect fit as Chair of the DNC. He would be no less a bomb thrower than Howard Dean. Perfect for Pelosi and Durbin.
This way the American voters will have a stark contrast of the two parties, even the RINO's will stand out as conservative when compared to Ellison.

#8 I learned that when you find yourself in a hole, you should quit digging.

Seems the Democommunists haven't learned that lesson.

Nothing has changed in their playbook in my life time. The things they said about Dubya, they were saying about Eisenhower when I was a kid.

Remembering August 1981 and the "Professional" Air Traffic Controllers (PATCO) strike.
