Obama endorsed by food/commercial workers union
Larry Eichel reports: As the Pennsylvania primary campaign continues, area labor unions are making their endorsements. And the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 1776 has weighed in on the side of Barack Obama.
Wendell W. Young IV, the local’s president, said that his executive board decided that Obama was “the best candidate to unite our country.” The local represents 23,000 workers in Pennsylvania, Maryland and New York, including workers in many supermarkets and in Pennsylvania’s liquor stores.

I'm a worker and I'm voting for Obama.
Not sure, even in Philadelphia, if union endorsements are effective anymore.

Come on now people - If we can forgive Bill Clinton for disgracing us with Monica, and we still let him stay in the white house, then we can allow Obama to move forward with this election. Lets be fair. Obama gots my vote in April.
I think the thing that Unions bring is organization. Even though he's shown to be the best organizer by far, Obama will need a lot of help in PA as he's starting out so far behind. But Hillary will have to win by 25% to make it anything but a wash. Obama has always worked with the communities for the people, so I don't think he'll lose that big. Vote hope, not fear.
