"At the end of the day, the UAW does not care what cars you make as long as you are employed. It is the management in change from one set of models to another set of more fuel efficient models that makes the transition challenging. Because the Big 3 do not anticipate the markets very well, they usually react and fight everything tooth and nail because it is to darn expensive to change platforms, engines, stampings, etc. They just don't want to lose more market share"

The American companies cannot compete in the small car market. The Japanese have had years of a head start there due to the nature of their home market. The UAW may vote for kerry as knee jerk democrats - it will be at the expense of their own well being!
