 Language Log: At long last
In the early 1950s, Senator Joseph McCarthy was famous for his aggressive anti-communist stance, and speeches in which he claimed to be in possession of long lists of names of communists in the State department, the military, and elsewhere in government.

At long last sounds a bit odd, too; Welch means it in the sense "Hasn't this gone on long enough?", which is not quite the same as the modern sense "finally" (as in At long last Iraq has an Iraqi-led government), though of course they are close.
