-isn't the leadership of the Teamster's Union mostly Republican?

In the 2006 cycle, the Teamsters gave $153,300 in PAC money, $125,300 of 
which went to Democrats.  And the GOP money mostly went to the Republicans 
softer on labor issues, like Lincoln Chafee.

The Teamsters endorsed both Al Gore and John Kerry.
