Yep, that about sums it up. I think Democrats can blame McGovern for their long history of losing. He brought to life the extremist wing of the party and took it over. Since, there have been 2 democratic president...one was landslided in his run for re-election. The other, while making history in 92', had the luxury of running against Bob Dole in 96'.


McGovern was more of a war hero than any of these warmongering chickenhawks will ever be.

You can't be a hero and garner 17 EVs against Richard Nixon. Those are called failures.

Winning or losing one election does not determine how good of a person you are.
