What hypocrisy?

You slam Nixon for some meaningless burglary yet you are completely silent about the dirty tricks LBJ used. Is bugging your opponents airplane wrong?

Some meaningless burglary? How come Nixon was pardoned? What happened to that 18 1/2 minutes of the tape? Why were there all of thosse talks about Cubans? No, the story is far more complicated than that.

And anyways, one thing that hardly anyone knows is that if Nixon hadn't sabatoged the peace talks, the Vietnam war would have ended October 31st, 1968. Instead he made the war continue just to help his curropt ass in that election.

I remember that when Johnson made an announcement on Vietnam on October 31st, Humphrey went up in the polls.  How could Nixon have sabotaged them?
