For what it's worth, every union isn't all warm and fuzzy with Obama. Don't know where you got that from.

In 2004 UAW contributed $ 4.1M to Obama. In 2000-2008, UAW contributed over $ 23M to Dems, $ 193K to the GOP.
So for a $ 23 M investment they got back $ 23 BILLION.....1000 times ROI, pretty damn good.....just one example.
The bundlers at Solyndra and other green energy companies that made off with taxpayer backed loans only donated in the hundreds of thousands, yet got millions....another great play.
