twitterFLASHPOINT for Dec 06, 2007
Thursday, Dec. 6, 2007 | 7:13 a.m.
So what to make of the Culinary's decision to wait until after New Year's to lend its union label to a presidential campaign? It's easy to say the union is afraid of the uncertainty in the race and doesn't want to endorse someone who might lose. It's easy to say that's putting pragmatism over principle - some will say the bosses are wimps. It's also easy to say the parent union is Edwards-centric but locals, especially the critical 226 here, want to wait to see if Edwards fades in Iowa. Then again, it's also easy to say the Culinary imprimatur will be more important and more coveted after results are in. I still think Culinary will endorse the eventual winner here - but some now will question whether the union made the winner or just rode along.
