Define your enemy....

As you recover from the exam, here is an interesting note about how labor unions plan to pre-emptively attack Sen. McCain in the general election. The original story is from the Wall Street Journal and the summary is from Taegan Goddard's Political Wire

"The AFL-CIO, the nation’s largest labor union organization, will announce plans Wednesday for a $53 million effort to elect a Democrat to the White House," according to the Wall Street Journal.

"The AFL-CIO will rely on one of the oldest strategies in the political playbook: Define your opponent before your opponent defines himself. The labor organization will launch its 'McCain Revealed' campaign to paint McCain as anti-worker and to tie him to the economic policies of President Bush."
