[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMcxAnL8wbE[/youtube] It’s clear from our most recent encounter with Al Franken that he, like Ashwin Madia and Elwyn Tinklenberg, has received the same union-provided talking points on how to handle the issue.

Boy, have we been having one heckuva time getting Democrat Congressional candidate Ashwin Madia to talk with us about his support for EFCA and worker intimidation by union organizers. During our first encounter, Madia asks us to set up a meeting. The next time, he has one of his handlers stall us, while he slinks away. […]
