You still just don't get it do you? No candidate that voted FOR Card Check, supported auto bailouts and SPONSORED a $165 billion dollar union pension bailout is going to have any chance in the Republican primary this year. I've seen your posts trying to explain away his vote for Card Check (which would have been the greatest gift to unions in about 50 years and stripped Americans of their right to a secret ballot), explain away the auto bailouts, but what about his SPONSORING a bill to bail out union pensions? I mean, come on man. That bill was so bad the Democrats couldn't even pass it, when they had massive majorities, in the midst of their stimulus and bailout orgy.
For a relative unknown that isn't especially charismatic, it was never going to be possible for him to get anywhere with that kind of baggage. McCotter is just too in the tank for unions, and one of the biggest problems we face (particularly at the local and state government level) is an obscenely bloated public sector which cycles what is essentially tax payer money into the Democratic party. This vicious cycle HAS to be broken and McCotter is a guy who not only couldn't be counted on to champion that fight - he might actually be on the side of unions during it.
Boy, some union must have screwed you GOOD, because you are a one note whiner!
