14. I was around.

they went after the strongest Dem candidates. They derailed the Muskie Campaign. Remember the Canuck letter? It was written in the White House.
They got the Manchester Union Leader to attack Muskie's wife, and it left him with tears in his eyes on a flatbed outside the newspaper, and his campaign came to a grinding halt after that.
Nixon had teams of people doing "push-polling" in key states ... outrageous lies were used.

other than that, i will accept your advice and go for a walk. Thank you.
