McClellan? Name sounds familiar.
General George McClellan, 1864 Democratic Presidential Party Candidate ran against his former boss, Abraham Lincoln.
Sometime I’m going to have research that family tree...seems to grow lots of nuts. Apologies to anyone on FR that happens to have that name, a few can spoil the bunch.
Your research will quickly show you that Scott’s daddy, Barr McClellan, is a real piece of work (especially when it comes to JFK-assassination-conspiracy theories—actually, he has a cool theory, but I doubt that even he believes it). Still, Scott cannot be blamed for having Barr as his old man. He can be blamed for being a horrible press secretary and subsequent turncoat.
