If anything, the timing is perfect to show management how engaged the rank and file is on these topics...and that weenies need not apply to be reps.

Really? Decertification is a no confidence vote. A decertification battle won by 1% simply means there is very little confidence.
DPA would have to illustrate a superior plan to unify pilots performing Delta flying to get me on board and overall, I'm certainly satisfied with the results we are getting from D ALPA.
