Better to curry favor with the candidate known for having an 'enemies list',
a vindictive streak, and a long memory; than to endorse Labor Champion
Bernie Sanders, who doesn't have a vindictive streak in his body. Is a sad
testimony to the current state of unionism.

It's esp sad because is probably Labor's last chance to throw off the yoke of
3rdWay, lukewarm on labor sell-outs, and regain it's vibrancy under Sanders.
