O how the mighty linemen have fallen(?)

Eight years ago, as I was helping to form a local chapter of the Green Party, I learned that the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) had endorsed then-Green Party* candidate Ralph Nader for President.

On Monday, January 28, 2008, John Edwards will be making a campaign stop at the IBEW local to support his bid for the Democratic nomination.


*(Four years later, if you'll remember, Nader ran as an Independent (slash Reform?) candidate, while Texas lawyer David Cobb was the Green nominee.)

The Greens will never get anywhere with Nader or McKinney running.
