There are legions of white, middle class, union, factory workers, between the ages of 45 and 65, who have been union all their working lives and will never vote for Obama. I’m talking the mill wrights, electricians, tool & die, ect, ect. I know because I grew up around those guys, and was raised by one. No one ever seems to talk about it, but it’s there like the proverbial elephant in the room. They rarely ever go to primaries because they work odd shifts, with lots of overtime, but they do vote in elections. I’ve even talked to my dad about this, (he’s pretty high up in the union), and he said that the Union Leadership, (on the National level), can endorse who they want, but once we are alone in the voting booth we vote for who we want usually, and we won’t vote for Obama. Watch and see folks. Watch and see.
