It isn't surprising Co. and NV would oppose the employee free choice act because of the types of industries out there. The trend seems to be that states with the most multi-generational poverty and run down cities, have the most support for it. These states tend to be in the rust belt and include NJ, Ohio, upstate NY and Michigan.

See ya Harry. Again, just antoher probable Dem loss. The list keeps growing and growing.

Actually, NV is a big union state... almost all the casinos and related businesses are unionized. CO is a different story.
As for Stillow's statement, the list just got shorter with Mr. 9/11 chickening out. you're celebrating a bit too early, my friend. November is a long ways away, yet.

While Rudy would have definately have won, Pataki will still have a very good shot. I think it goes from probable GOP to toss up.

Rudy might have been the favorite, But right now remember you are seeing typical New York City Chauvinism. Whoever wins the Democratic primary will ultimately have almost all Democrats behind them regardless of what people say now. I would be surprised if Pataki gets more than 47% on election day.

Pataki has shown no interest, so far, in running for any office.
