Guest you're kidding, right? Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Times have changed when the unions were strong the MAYOR LISTENED, not anymore everything is splintered nobody sticks together. If we did this Mayor would be history. Brother union members we created a monster. We have what we have because we supported him when he first ran. Now what a mess we have ourselves in now. Its our own fault. 80689[/snapback] You're confusing Santos with McIntyre, Leadbeater and Mangin. The municipal employee unions never supported Santos. Not in 1999. Not in 2001. Not in 2003. They supported his opponents. From the unions' perspective, Santos couldn't be trusted. Might have been him being a lawyer or, I'd hate to think it, but his ethnic background?

PBA 21 has never in my memory endorsed Al Santos...except POSSIBLY when he first ran for Council, and i dont recall us doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's mindbogglling. It also means your statement that the municipal unions once supported Santos is an impossibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you cant come up with a civil answer then i suggest you keep your comments to yourself. PBA 21 did NOT Endorse Santos. That said im sure there were individual Members that supported him, and still do, but the Majority of us learned our Lesson after Vartan. WE DO NOT endorse ANY candidate as a Union anymore.
