Is this the same Barry Goldwater who opposed Nixon in 1968, Reagan in 1980 and who gave Bill Clinton kudos for his presiency? Is this the same Barry Goldwater who later in life became a pro-choice supporter of abortion rights and who believed in special rights for homosexuals?

Yes sir, that's old Barry Goldwater.

Goldwater hit his high mark in 1964, just before LBJ destroyed him in the general election. The worse defeat by a Republican in the last fifty years and that included Bob Dole's weak effort in 1996.

Btw, who did Barry Goldwater bless as his successor? I believe that was John McCain.
