@gungasnake,
And look what happened to Spiro Agnew---he was found with his hand in the Maryland till and plead guilty of accepting bribes and tax evasion--poor Spiro--whoda thunk!!
I guess good things happened out of the Agnew disaster--Nixon replaced Agnew with Ford so when Nixon pulled a Wasilla Quitter Move, the country was left with a relatively honest politician as POTUS.
You know, Ganja, that before his encounter with Nixon in 68, Agnew was considered a moderate Republican, more of a contemporary of Nelson Rockefeller and George Romney. He only became a hero of the wacko right when he opened his mouth and became Nixon's distraction.
