Redeye, two questions for you.

After the MEC endorsement of Kerry in 04 there were some rather boisterous objections. The MEC responded by passing an almost meaningless resolution requiring a poll of the membership before they ignore it and endorse the democrat’s next nominee.

Question 1: Do you think the MEC would have responded to the membership then if there was an agency shop?

Question 2: Do you think an agency shop will make an endorsement of hillary more or less likely? Even if it is something minor like changing the probability of 98% to 100%.

Now I realize this will result in major thread drift and will be glad to move to a new thread, but this is an example of why the leadership is less responsive to the membership because of agency shop.

I will be glad to discuss politics and the rangle/clinton tax increases elsewhere.
