Specter flips back to EFCA

Ha! It appears the Democrats evil plan is already working. Latest word is after some cosmetic changes, Specter is back on board for EFCA. Not clear what the changes are, but this is still in.
Majority sign-up is considered the heart of the bill because it would remove the choice of how to recognize unions – sign-up by a majority of workers or an election – from the employers, who now make that choice, and give it, instead, to the workers. By choosing union representation through majority sign-up, workers reduce the ability of employers to harass, threaten and fire union supporters during a protracted election process.
Via, Jay Ackroyd who said it was bad but I'm not seeing the down side here. We get another vote for the bill and it only makes Specter look like an idiot for flipping back and forth. Makes it easier to beat him in a primary.
