Regardless of who is the Democratic nominee next year, the union worker who lost his pension and his health care when his company declared bankruptcy should be the Poster Boy for the Democratic party. He should be used to show what the Republicans meant when they call for a free market, and unbridled power of corporations. He should be the face of a party that panders to the wealthy, and does nothing for the little guy.
Update: His name is Steve Skvara and here is the link to the video:

We need to find out how his company treated the CEOs when they declared bankruptcy. That, along with his question, need to be prominently featured in ad after ad in the general election.
You see, that man is what the republican party is all about. They are all about protecting their corporate cronies at the expense of you and me.
I don't have much else to add. Forgive my short diary, but he brought me to tears. He will bring many Americans, including those who are decent people but who have been hoodwinked by these criminals, to tears.
Please Democratic campaign managers - use the heartfelt question of that man in your ads against the republicans in the general election.
(My apologies for not having his name - I have been googling it, because I missed it when he asked his question.)
