On February 24, Moe Lane posted a short piece alerting one and all to the fact that one of the Republican candidates for Washington State's 3rd Congressional District is a favorite of the hard-core lefties in the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) -- one of Obama's favorite Big Labors cohorts. Mr. Lane, though, was sure that Jaime Herrera "regrets that endorsement now." Unfortunately, I am not so sanguine because Herrera has been far more compliant with Big Labor's goals than is evident from what Lane might have thought was a mere wayward endorsement.
There is a reason, it appears, that the SEIU endorsed Herrera. As a Republican she seems to be far more one of them than one of us at least as far as Big Labor's needs go!
Moe Lane cited the Clark County Politics blog on the SEIU's endorsement, but if you don't want to believe the CCPblog -- admittedly a right leaning site -- here is a Progressive Voters Guide for Washington and here is the Voters Guide for Equal Rights Washington, both left-wing groups that show SEIU support for Herrera. On top of that here is SEIU Local 1199 NW's endorsement page which also announces its endorsement of Herrera...

Chicago Techniques in Washington....Is that where Ma Belle’s brother,Craig Robinson ended up?
That is a special kind of stupid
Wrong thread. lol.
Left wing sock puppet. ugh.
I almost forgot Sal, the other half of the Columbia couch picture lives in Seattle too. You know the one with nine/ten fingers on the cigarette picture. Wonder if he has any SEIU connections?
Hey BC, what do you make of all this?
I think I’ll hold my peace for a bit until I can dig into this a bit more; but I will say that the visceral attacks against Jamie Herrera are unfair and particularly vicious this early in the campaign.
The Clark County GOP has not listed names of the candidates running on their web site.
I don’t live in Ckark County, but those that do better be getting involved with your caucus, because this is what happens when you stay at home.

Thanks.
It’s clear that the smear machine is operating at full steam but he had best get on top of this or it will eat him alive.
Frankly I rather be endorsed by Alex Jones than SEIU...
I will say that the visceral attacks against Jamie Herrera are unfair...
"Unfair"? How? Hard to believe you can even SAY that after her pro-SEIU votes... unless you aren't really a conservative at all? Maybe you like Big Labor?
So do you have any contrawise proof that these claims are "unfair" or are you just speaking out of your hat?
What possible reason could Herrera have for voting for these union bills that would square with her being a proper Republican?
Ya know, I don’t know who the hell you are, but I really don’t like your attacks, your attitude, or much of anything you have had to say on this so far. I am in no mood to put up with this BS out of you or anyone else.
So kiss my ass, and keep you comments to yourself.
Clear enough?
Lump it left-winger. I’ll say what I want and I won’t bend over backwards for some commie like your pal Herrera. Go back to the DailsCuz where you belong.
