Default IPA Elections

Maybe we should start a dedicated thread?

> I've heard that the IPA Vice President, Treasurer and the 2nd At-Large Representative have endorsed Scott Farley. Personally, I'd prefer to see a team such as this work together as opposed to the internal fighting of late.<<

That would certainly be one in the plus column. Think that they will have the nerve to go public with such an endorsement? If they don't, it's just another rumor

I see additional fragmentation looming on the horizon. I would prefer if the rest of the EB didn't comment at all on the canidates running for office.

It's just a rumor until I hear from them. I want a pit bull, so Farley is out for me. And I feel UPS would destroy him in negotiations. My opinion.

I like Thrush. He's spot on it seems on everything that matters to me.

I think BT is just ****ed because they took him out of grievance. He seems angry.

Vote for BT if you want to end the MOU and throw at least 300 of us on the street.

How does voting for BT have anything to do with the MOU? The MOU will be looked at again this Fall, way before any new Pres. takes office. And from what I hear, the participation is going to be WAY less this time around.


Plus my Vote is for many, many items. Not just one like the MOU.

Read BT's take on the MOU on the Bar & Grill.

I agree with Naven.

I think BT Sealed his own fate with his posts on the B&G. I am all for some new blood and someone who wasn't hired here in the 80's. Just my opinion!

Default Thush is it for me too!

If the mere mention of Farley's wife being an IPA MD-11 instructor makes him so upset maybe he should reconsider his involvement in IPA politics? On the B&G Farley has been desperately trying to deflect from the original topic many would like addressed. There is serious doubt among many as to whether the "wannabe IPA CEO" has the backbone to stand up to the Company. It was also really awkward and in poor taste how Moody was going after Trush at the Forum. For now Thrush seems the only viable candidate unless someone can convince me otherwise. I am willing to bet that the MOUs eventually will turn out to be as effective as Obama's cash for clunkers program.
