That idiot Hughes did not even meet with popular Governor (and then in 1916 Senate Canddiate) Herschel Johnson. Had he met with him, had some drinks, maybe golfed, then Johnson would have endorsed Hughes and he would have won California and the election.

Hughes stayed at the same hotel as Johnson, and didn't even know he was there. He had been planning to meet with him, but his advisers didn't tell him he was there.

Wilson was considered a progressive, and by most measures, he was. He greatly expanded federal power, started the income tax, and kept hiking it, started the estate tax, etc.

When he first ran, he ran from the right. He called for states' rights, opposed the minimum wage, etc. He was easily the most conservative candidate.
