Yeh, but that only makes sense. For better or worse, the GOP is the party of management and the Democrats are the party of labor. I would give you similar odds that Republicans are a significant minority (probably a bigger minority) in the upper echelons of Big Labor. It is what it is.

of course this is true which is why it is so ironic to see all these tea bags swearing allegiance to their masters as they are oppressed by them

+2. My mother-in-law is a case in point (bless her heart). Her husband was a union master printer, her sister a schoolteacher, and her brother a government worker. All three of her kids work for the Federal Gov't. Two of their spouses are schoolteachers. I don't ever think she's eaten a bite a food that wasn't provided by someone who was a natural Democratic constituent.

That said, she's somewhere to the right of Attila the Hun on the political spectrum and blind to the irony of it. She worships at the altar of the Maharushi and truly thinks Glenn Beck is brilliant and insightful. Go figure.
