I actually like George McGovern.

I think he's a good guy.

Not to say I would have voted for him in 1972. Besides...he's 83 years old. Nice guy though...I wish I could buy him a beer sometime.

I know I wouldn't have voted for him, because I didn't. But he was a good guy. IMO wrong on Vietnam (later right on Cambodia, where he wanted us to intercede, too late), but a courageous American who served his country bravely. The Dems don't seem to be able to come up with those types of candidates anymore.

McGovern is a charming fellow with a lot of down-to-earth midwestern genuineness. Dead wrong on the issues, but a nice fellow. Walter Mondale is another gentlemen who is a nice fellow, but dead wrong on the issues. I met him while he was ambassador to Japan, one of Clinton's few good appointments.

As long as Liberals are in the minority party or the make-beleive world (media, academia, Hollywood, State Department or Wal-Mart greeters), they can huff and puff and charm to their heart's content. Just don't let them anywhere near the levers of power.
