He got crushed. You can't get crushed and have run a good campaign. No, there is nothing to say: McGovern was an awful candidate who ran an awful campaign.

(This is irrespective of whether he would have been a good President; I think most people here would agree that Adlai Stevenson would have been a great President, but he was really bad at campaigning.)
