[QUOTE="twoweeled, post: 1442247, member: 27108"] I certainly believe a lot of this is true. I will not profess to know the inner working of the IBT. I am certain I know little. With the politics involved at the International level, I believe Ron would have been quickly marginalized. In a way that would have rendered him severely handicapped by the IBT, and our perception as a local would have been extremely negative. That scene would have helped no one, least of all the local. Ron has to play along with the IBT, at certain levels, if he is to garner any support from the IBT. [I]Personally, I can't stand Hoffa and hope he loses big when he's time comes, But he is in office now and he must be contended with.[/I] That's the fact. Maybe Ron is between a rock and a hard place. He loses favor with the IBT, so do we as a local! Second point. I had hopes for RG earlier on. Watching his campaign was revealing. I saw little if anything personally of a campaign. I'm sure others saw something more. but how much more? Honestly!! How much more aggressiveness did you see in RG campaign? What we are looking at now, is RG in attack mode, maximum! If it isn't RG's maximum, WELL IT SHOULD BE!! He's running to win. undoubtedly this expected aggression would diminish some after (if he were to win). I'm sorry, but I'm seeing nowhere near the amount of aggression I want in office. Let alone, after the paltry aggressiveness diminishes more? Ron is the incumbent! Ron is showing a much more aggressive attack in the election. I cannot explain why, merely it is! Ron and I still don't see eye to eye on everything. In fact, we don't see eye to eye on quite a few things. But if I get fired again, I'll be giving Ron a call to make sure he's in that room. Trust me. When the word games start, and debating and people start sharpening their tongues on a wheel,,, Ron is among the best I've seen, bar none. I've been in the office quite a few times. I've seen good representatives, and I've seen a lot of bad ones. You want Ron in that office with you. Like him, or not. [/QUOTE]
