1. Wow

That is HUGE news. That may well put Bruce in front runner status ... not just in money, but in organiztion too.

2. It's either a good sign or a REALLY bad sign

If Labor starts piling on and all endorse one candidate then it's good (at least for that candidate), but if Labor splits down the middle (Like if UAW goes w/Dickinson or if IA-FED goes with Gluba) this primary could get ugly.

I haven't heard about any of AFSCME new group members...what's the new Labor group called? That includes Teamsters, UFCW and UNITE HERE signing on w/ a candidate yet, and as far as I know no IA-FED groups have endorsed. Anyone know what the UAW is up to?

Still, a Labor endorsement is a good sign for Braley.
