Flashpoint for Nov. 30, 2005
Wednesday, Nov. 30, 2005 | 8:02 a.m.
So what were a bunch of labor guys doing this week at Cili, the trendy eatery where power lunches and fundraisers are de rigueur? The union folks were munching on the haute cuisine but chewing over something much more mundane: Who they should support in the elections, especially in the wake of the Clark County Commission's sticking it to the police union on the pay increase. No firm decisions were made, but no Democrat on the commission can expect the union folks to do much. The cops may want revenge, but they need candidates they can count on, especially against Lynette Boggs McDonald. So despite the delectable fare, the labor bosses probably left with an empty feeling.
