Well, then based on current NMB members - Fauth (R), Puchala (D) and Fortson (R), we will be totally screwed on this new contract. According to the logic that's now being peddled by some.

How bad did Spirit's pilots just get screwed with the current NMB? Only a 43% pay increase on date of signing along with higher retirement contributions and other contract enhancements. Total screwjob...

NMB composition matters a bit, but it's by no means the most important factor in securing a new contract. Those of you who think that NMB composition is critical are essentially saying that we'll be lucky if we don't get pay cuts, loss of scope, and onerous work rules on a new contract. All to 'prove' a partisan political point of view.
