Why Do Union Members Support Harry Reid?

I've always wondered why union members or union leaders support Harry Reid. here are some things Harry has done to hurt unions:
1. Harry has killed jobs in Nevada, including union jobs. He killed the construction of power plants up North that would have been built with union labor and possibly run with union members.
Yucca Mountain was closed by Harry. How many union jobs were lost there?
2. Harry supported Obama Care and wants the public option. If this comes to be, union members will shoved out of their negotiated union health plans and put into the public options.
3. Harry supports amnesty for illegals. If he gets that, the illegals will take away some union jobs. Look out SEIU Barney members, their coming for your jobs.
4. Harry wants to close down coal mining. Who mines most of the coal in the U.S.? Union members. Who transports most of the coal? Mostly by trains and who drives of the trains? Union members.
5. Harry supports green energy. How many green energy plants in Nevada are unionized?
6. Harry supports higher taxes. How many union members want to lose more of their pay to the government?
7. Since the government took over GM and Chrysler, thousands of union jobs have disappeared. Since Reid has become Majority Leader, hundreds of thousands of union jobs have disappeared.
8. Social Security is going bankrupt. Maybe not for baby boomers, but our future union members will not see social security the way it is now. Harry Reid is in denial about Social Security and he has led raids on the Social Security trust funds. Harry Reid does not support Social Security.

So, why do union members support Harry Reid?
