    1. 1968: Sen McCarthy v. VP Nixon????

      er, Sen. McCarthy did not get the nomination. It was sitting Vice-President Humphrey v. VP Nixon v. Gov. Wallace.

    2. Thanks for the correction. I know it was Humrphrey. I guess the whole early primary thing sticks in my head.

    3. No problem, I was just trying to help jog your memory is all. Heck, it was pretty impressive carrying it back as far as you did from memory (as I assume you did). And your point about Gen. Clark is well taken, for that same pattern of insider, or rather professional politician, being at the head of the ticket pretty much goes back to the beginning of presidential elections.

    4. Thansk.

      I had ‘em by memeory until I got back into the FDR races. And I did have to confirm the careers starting with Stevenson–I couldn’t remember if he was a gov or a senator.
