Sink Silence on Health Care Bought and Paid For By Big Labor

In Case You Missed It–For more than two months, Floridians have been waiting for Democrat Gubernatorial Candidate Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink to take a position on the Democrat’s $900 billion health care experiment.

If the vast majority of Floridians are opposed to this bureaucratic takeover of the health care industry, why won’t Alex Sink take a position? Perhaps because opposing the Democrat’s health care bill could cost her hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from the labor unions who finance her campaign.

The pressure for Sink to take a position on this controversial legislation has been mounting in recent weeks, but given the recent financial fate suffered by her Democrat colleague Congresswoman Suzanne Kosmas, Floridians will likely have to hold out in Alex Sink’s Health Care Waiting Room.

Orlando Sentinel: Unions Halt Kosmas Support Over Health Care Vote
U.S. Rep. Suzanne Kosmas, D-New Smyrna Beach, is taking more hits from the left over her vote against the Democratic health care plan that barely passed the House this month – without her support – and the fallout continued over the weekend from her previously staunch labor supporters.

Volusia/Flagler Central Labor Council President Stacy Stepanovich sent a letter to Kosmas this weekend letting her know that Central Florida labor groups will halt all contributions to her campaign until further notice, due to the Kosmas 'no' vote.

While the labor groups' early 2010 endorsement still holds, the Central Florida, Space Coast and Volusia/Flagler AFL-CIO's all voted unanimously Thursday night to suspend check-writing, flier walks, and any other efforts for the Kosmas campaign, according to this letter to Kosmas.

The Progressive Change Campaign Committee came out against Kosmas last week for the same reason.
