I agree.... While ALPA clearly has problems (conflict of interest issues are paramount in my view), comparatively speaking, DALPA has done very well for the DAL pilots post 9-11. The rest of the industry must move rapidly toward the SWA contract paradigm, or I am afraid they will inevitably be falling back towards the rest of the industry.
