Labor and the Democratic Coalition Since FDR

As I do around here, I've stolen once again from Marc Ambinder. If you didn't see this post or if you just didn't read the paper that the post links to, you ought to read it. It's really informative.

Among the fun facts included in the paper: Senator Hugo Black (D-AL) - before was on the Supreme Court - sponsored a bill to create a 3o-hour workweek.
