...interests of promoting the welfare of labor, Meany has stuck to bread-and-butter issues and scoffed at the more grandiose schemes of some of his colleagues. His unabashed materialism and anti-Communism have won him many enemies on the left within the Democratic Party; Meany is so antiCommunist, in fact, that he refuses to smoke Havana cigars. Indeed, it looked for a few months last year as if Meany might lead a contingent of labor into the waiting arms of Richard Nixon.
