AFL-CIO president: Palin will be remembered as another McCarthy

(Politico) - AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, speaking to the Alaska AFL-CIO in Anchorage today, will take a swipe at Palin for her employment of the term "union thugs," according to prepared remarks.

Palin, he said, has come "close to calling for violence," and will "go down in history like McCarthy."
