Do you really think that making helpful suggestions to the crew running up the scaffold is worthwhile?

'UNRULY' CONSERVATIVES SHOCK THE GOP IN NY23
Nice analysis overall, but I think you're incorrect that union influence pressured Scozzafava's card check position. More likely her husband's position as a union official is at the root of it.
I was born and grew up in NY 23. Unions aren't a huge factor in this largely rural, largely hardscrabble district. I think the "NY" tends to fool people. Central and Northern NY are far away in miles and ideology from the liberal breeding grounds in NYC. In that sense, Scozzafava's positions ARE tending toward radical in comparison to the people of the 23rd.
