Unions stay on convention sidelines - POLITICO.com Print View
AFSCME political director Larry Scanlon said while unhappiness with Obama is still percolating within union ranks, turning out the vote for Democrats will be a yearlong process, not just one beginning with the convention.

AFSCME plans on coming out full force in Charlotte, assisting delegates and using soft money to help union members in contested races at the convention.
