Well, I didn't live through his term, so I don't know. |
I lived through it in two different newsrooms. The most damning indictment of Nixon is offered in John Dean's "Blind Ambition." Dean accepts full responsibiliity for his role in the Nixon presidency, but also gives full vent to his outrage at having been betrayed by Nixon. It's how most of us moderate conservatives felt. I mark my long journey to the left from that time.
