Calif. Service Union Backs Obama!!!
Calif. Service Union Backs Obama
By Steven Greenhouse

The largest labor union in California, the Service Employees International Union, with 650,000 members in the state, decided Friday to endorse Barack Obama.
That endorsement, by the California state chapter of the nation’s most political potent union, will help build momentum for Mr. Obama. In addition, because of the union’s large Latino membership, the endorsement could prove important in persuading more Hispanics to vote for Mr. Obama in the California primary next Tuesday.

I think thats great news however I'm leary of these union endorsements b/c look where that got us in Nevada. However it definitely doesn't hurt so I'm glad. I hope CA is close for Obama. If he can steal it all the better!
