Inspired by the comment our mutual friend General Mung Beans left in the "RFK vs HHH" thread in which he claimed that both were much better than Eugene McCarthy.

Freedom Fighter, of course.

FF, but not worth it for the hippies to "Dump the Hump" over.

One of the greatest (normal). I'd still probably have voted for RFK, though.

Was very good until after his '68 run, at which point he became one of those "socially liberal, fiscally conservative" yuppie types.  Which ultimately lead him down the road to libertarianism.

One of the best. Would have voted for him in the '68 primaries and in the '76 General Election.

His later campaigns were a joke.

A much great improvement from his first few, IMO.

He is the kind of "libertarian Democrat" that I like. Loved his platform on both elections. He can mix social libertarianism with bold left positions and that was something really nice!
