In November, workers had better come to their senses and vote for candidates who support the union movement. Elect pro-worker candidates to office. In politics, symbols mean nothing. There are only winners and losers. Losers go home and try to figure out what they'll do in the next election.
Winners take office and begin enacting the legislation they talked about during their campaigns.
We cannot afford to squander our votes on candidates with no chance of being elected. Despite early polls, political experts say the presidential election and many congressional races will be close. In 1994, Newt Gingrich's followers took over the House by a margin of only a few votes per precinct. The same thing can happen this year. The Democrats can take back the House if workers get behind their candidates.
