  - Yes, that IS a big deal. That's my point. - Strongbad Sep 18, 05:44 2
    - He has both; it's a local issue that isn't under his purview from a constitutional aspect. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 18, 05:49 1
      - It surprises me that he has not come out Pro-Union on this issue. - Strongbad Sep 18, 05:52
