John Dean was the mastermind behind Watergate, and were it not for him there wouldn't have been a Nixon resignation.
Nixon was so far ahead in the polling that they didn't need to "bug" the Democratic National Committee Headquarters for intelligence. Nixon ended up carrying 49 of 50 states.
The purpose of Watergate was to get paperwork that Dean's then girlfriend Maureen was running a prostitution ring from within the DNC.
It was all outlined in the book Silent Coup that Liddy has said was the most factual account of what happened surrounding Watergate.
Ding ding we have a winner, I didn’t read silent coup but I did read will, lindy should have kicked the shit out of Dean.
