the NLPC did some extensive work on this

Their labor Research Project layed out in a diagram all the players in the Carey cash swaps and it's all the same players, Paul & Heather, Planned Parenthood, ACORN, Project Vote, The New Party, The Tides Foundation, Emily's List, Michael Ansera (head of Harvard's SDS) and his wife barbara Meryll (Meryll Lynch), McEntee, Trumpka, Sweeney the DNC Senatorial campaign committee ... it's quite a font of the left

the WSJ. was some of the best coverage

I did find some good stuff on NLPC's site while I was compiling this. I haven't seen that diagram, sounds useful. I'm seeing references to the research on their site but not the actual diagram. It looks like some of the research is also presented in their report Common Cause with America's Enemies: How Labor Unions Embraced Antiwar Extremism
