Well, in theory, the idea of all 3 Presidential Nominees appearing on RAW seemed like a good idea. After all, WWE has a strong base in the 18-34 demographic, which is the weakest age range amongst voters. So it seemed smart for the Nominees to appear and target that demographic.

However, I have to ask if it was wise from a political standpoint.

WWE was just the focus of Congressional scrutiny for Steroid Abuse and came within a hair of having Congressional Hearings and Investigations. Vince McMahon himself recently mocked Congress and Washington for targeting him.

Considering that all 3 of them appeared, they are on level playing ground because none of them can attack each other over it. In my opinion though, it shows how desperate all 3 of them are. WWE can be seen as a “special interest lobbyist”. They have problems with Congress and now they can “call in a favor” with any of the 3, depending on who wins in November.

Personally, I think it was unwise of all of them to appear on that show.

That’s terrible. what is happening in our country. It’s seems the worst is coming out in people.

We need more labor stories and this is a humdinger. The SEIU has been using Obama caucus tactics to physically assault and harass female members of the California Nurses Association.

It’s a good post showing union violence, but this is nothing new. I had my own little experience with wonderful union members. A few years ago, during an election year, I was coming to a stop light, in the right hand turning lane, in my city.There was a small convention center there and therewas an
obvious Democratic Party gathering from all the people along the streets, some in political costumes, some carrying anti-Republican signs, lining the streets. When my truck came to a halt at the light, (it’s a very long light), a person noted a Bush sticker on my rear bumper. He called out to a guy that was standing on the sidewalk right at my open passenger side window. He was wearing a “Halloween” Bush mask and approached my truck and began swearing at me. For a short while I said nothing, but after a time I finally lost my temper and began hurling back a few choice (non-swearing) words. When he turned to call out to a few guys to get “tough” with me, I asked if these were paid union “goons”. He said you bet they are and the biggest guy reached in through the window to try and grab me out of my truck.
(By now there were four guys there.) Since they were grabbing my right arm, which is disable and pretty useless, I don’t have a lot of strength in it, they were able to pull me hard enough that my foot came off the brake pedal and my truck started rolling forward. I pulled back to set my foot on the brake again (one “goon was standing in front of the truck and I almost hit him along with other “wonderful” Democrats in the crosswalk), and then, luckily the two cops in an unmarked squad, parked in a gas station behind them, watching all of this, finally got out of the car and asked them to “behave themselves”, by then the light turned green and the cops told me to just move along.

Ahh..the American Labor movement…such nice people.
