White House official: 'Unions just flushed $10 million down the toilet'

[Chris_]

A senior White House official just called me with a very pointed message for the administration's sometime allies in organized labor, who invested heavily in beating Blanche Lincoln, Obama's candidate, in Arkansas.

"Organized labor just flushed $10 million of their members' money down the toilet on a pointless exercise," the official said. "If even half that total had been well-targeted and applied in key House races across this country, that could have made a real difference in November."

Go read the AFL-CIO's response for yourself.

Gee, you would think Obama ran the unions.... is he going to nationalize them?

And every time Obumbles mumbles or talks about "kicking some ass" he pisses away another $100 BILLION.
