I have to tell you something I've never said before publicly. I voted for [Ford] in 1976.-Former Senator George McGovern (Democrat-SD) on Tuesday's "Larry King Live"
McGovern was the Democratic Party's candidate for president in 1972. He lost to President Nixon in one of the biggest landslides in U.S. history: 60.7% to 37.5%, and losing every state but Massachusetts.
I'm sure it stings some of his loyal '72 supporters to find out that he turned around four years later and voted for the Republican candidate, but you know...that's what America is all about.
Isn't it?
