[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1143175, member: 17969"] Well, I dont agree that Ron is worried, as I see it differently. I believe Ron will springboard out of 396 to the international or another local and attempt to insert Jay P. into office. That will not happen of course, and it will take another UPSer to step up and replace them. Rich, unfortunately, isnt that guy. His negatives far outweigh his abilities to win elected office. While he is popular amongst his closest circles, once out of his orbit, he is lost in space. NOW, that is NOT to say he is "WRONG" on this contract, to that extent, he is on the money. There are bigger movements working around the hubs and personalities that will be able to handle office, if that becomes the case in the next election cycle. While in the short run, RON and the agents may walk around the hubs telling those that will listen to them like puppy dogs that the contract will pass "EVEN IF" all the western states reject this contract, that will NOT be the end of this fight. The ultimate end to the H administration and his legacy, will be this contract and its concessions that affect us all in the West. Who knows, those people who have differences with H and CO. and other sideline players, will come together and oust Ron and his admin in a convincing vote that will turn out to be a referendum on his lack of concern for the members of local 396. On the other hand, Ron, being a politician now, instead of a representative of his members, knows that if he intends on staying in office, he may have to flip and recommend a NO VOTE in an attempt to save his own skin. To this end, you have a point. If HE and his admins feel that the contract will pass even though all the western states reject it, then what does he have to lose by recommending a NO VOTE? This could be the play of the day. Peace TOS [/QUOTE]
