Never could see the big deal about watergate. Political offices get broken into all the time...and robbed...and bugged....and whatever. Plain everyday politics....

That makes two of us. I always saw “Watergate” as a bunch of huffing and puffing about nothing by the political buffoons in Washington. Kind of the Seinfeld Show of politics.

Yep - I wonder how that era would have been different if there had been an alternate media like we have today. NO ONE questioned or checked anything that Woodward and Bernstein reported, so we may never know if there was a Dan Rather moment in that entire scandal.
