MONDAY, JANUARY 21, 2002 "It was barely a year ago that Linda Chavez was on CNN's "Wolf Blitzer Reports," lamenting her ill-fated bid to be secretary of labor and organized labor's opposition. 'I think organized labor, I think quite mistakenly, somehow thought that I was going to be their worst nemesis,' she told Wolf Blitzer. 'I had a very nice talk with John Sweeney this morning, and by the way, I don't think . . . that would have been the case. I think I would have actually been very helpful in trying to bridge a gap that exists between the Republican Party and organized labor.' Well, that was then. Nowadays, in a recent fundraising letter for her effort to block unions from using dues for political contributions, Chavez calls her pal Sweeney a 'big labor boss' and says 'big labor has a radical socialist agenda.'"
