Labor Leader: Democrats Inviting Historic Electoral Losses

"One of the top union leaders in the country warned on Monday that the Democratic Party risked suffering electoral losses of historic proportions if they pass watered-down health care legislation and refuse to seriously tackle financial regulatory reform.

"In a speech before the National Press Club (and comments beforehand), AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka insisted that Democrats are 'inviting a repeat' of the 1994 midterm elections by instituting a tax on high-end insurance plans as part of their final health care compromise, among other things."
