dRay (and others) - what's your vibe on Card Check?

I oppose it, because it makes it too easy for the unions to misbehave. The purpose of the cards is to demonstrate to the NLRB that there is sufficient interest to hold an election. Some in organized labor say that a card return of more than 51% is a majority vote. I dunno. The secret ballot is still the best way to gauge true sentiment, IMO. In my final analysis, I'd say the system should stay as is, but with some "streamlining" to make it a quicker process.
More time=More time for both sides to play politics.
However, having said that, if a "Card Check" demonstrates a CLEAR majority, of say 66%, or higher, or shows a CLEAR lack of interest, say 33% or lower........................Why bother with an election?
