USAToday: Dean set to get major union endorsement (SEIU)

2. All but final seems to be the word out
The endorsement, to be announced Thursday, is raising hopes in Dean circles that the former Vermont governor and Democratic front-runner also can win backing from another politically powerful union that so far has remained neutral, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.

The SEIU endorsement will be announced after the union's 63-member executive board meets with Dean on Thursday, campaign sources said, insisting on anonymity.

3. groovy!
I've been writing the powers that be, to see if there's any way ALPA (Air Line Pilots Association) will consider endorsing him.
