People are fed up with the economy... members have been alarmed at how quickly jobs, health care and the stock market, which affects many pension plans, have eroded during President Bush's term. "This is the worst president in the history of the United States, and people are starting to realize it."
Since rallying behind John F. Kerry after the Massachusetts senator took the lead in the Democratic primaries last winter, labor unions have committed huge amounts of money and legions of foot soldiers to help him defeat Bush. Much of the focus has been in midwestern battleground states, where industrial unions boast large memberships.

Chuck Rocha, national political director for the Steelworkers, said he has never seen union members so energized over an election. "We have more of our members actively working to defeat George Bush than we've ever had involved in any election cycle," he said. Four years ago, the union had about 100 activists in 10 states, Rocha said, compared with 500 in eight states this year.
