Interesting that former President Bill Clinton eulogized former presidential candidate Eugene McCarthy earlier this week.
According to several people who used to see McCarthy regularly at The Palm restaurant in downtown Washington, D.C., McCarthy was no fan of Clinton as the years passed through his administration. By 2000, McCarthy was as disgusted by his party’s leader as most other right-minded folk, and didn’t hide it. To the end, he was a man who put integrity ahead of just about anything else.
