[QUOTE="804brown, post: 1728417, member: 29553"] I find it refreshing to see people take a fresh look at things and abandon their once closed minded ways. That is why I think this campaign can work against Hoffa this time. Tim has reached out to non TDU people who also want change in our Intl. He is presently putting together a broad coalition of diverse leaders from different crafts: UPS, Freight, public sector, carhaul, etc. There is even a PTer on the slate. This slate is putting past ideologies behind and looking forward to dislodging Hoffa/Hall. That is why Hoffa/Hall fears this slate. That is why Hoffa/Hall has its attack dogs on this forum attacking Tim and Fred: when you cant run on a positive record of your own you try to disparage your future opponent to bloody him up a bit. You try to knock down the new comer down to the incumbent's level which tamps down any excitement by members wanting real change. You force members tired of the status quo to say: "they both suck", "he is just a s bad...", " How about a third choice...". Well, "how about a third choice" last time gave us Hoffa for five more years. No member or candidate is perfect. One candidate has been given a chance and DID NOT SUCCEED. The other succeeded at the Local level and wants to bring that PROVEN SUCCESS to our Intl. Is he perfect, absolutley not but this isnt about perfection. It is about rewarding failure or rewarding success. It is about continuing to lose ground or voting for change to move forward. Hoffa/Hall want this election about TDU (as you can read from all these threads being a forum for TDU bashing) not about their record of failure. Tim and Fred and their slate want this about our future!! [/QUOTE]
