I think McGovern's campaign in 1972 was ideal. I think he should be a role model for all Dems. It wasn't a fiasco, it was something that the Dems should emulate for decades to come.

McClellan, McGovern, Mondale. The Dems have such role models.

Is winning an election worth dishonoring the nation?

I give McGovern and Mondale their due for not trying to paint themselves as something they weren't and for going down with a blaze of glory when America rejected their Liberalism.

Both men were a cut above Bill Clinton who would answer "yes" in a heartbeat to the above question. Even if I don't agree with them, I give them their due.
