Coffee group this morning discussed the union involvement in local politics. One member of the group mentioned he saw a couple of political signs that didn't carry a union symbol at the bottom.

I know back in my day, no candidate put up a campaign sign that didn't carry a union logo on it and you certainly wouldn't put out a mailer without that symbol.

Now this particular man is a former teacher, so he probably pays more attention than most.

So, is it a big deal any longer? Do union workers get offended or decide a vote on who uses union printers and who doesn't? Would this influence your vote?

Personally, I'm getting so old that I'm lucky to read the name on the sign let alone look for the union label, but I understand the significance that others place on it.

When you can't golf in the morning, you sit around a table, suck on coffee refills and discuss such important topics. LOL
