Was this the same guy who started all the McCarthyism bullshit, and accusing people of being communist and ruining their lifes?
Um, Whoooaaa!...?
No, that was Joseph McCarthy.

While both had the same last name there was no affiliation between either one. Plus, both were complete political opossites. Joseph McCarthy was a right wing nut and an extremist, while Eugene McCarthy was a moderate liberal who campaigned to put an end to the Vietnam War.

Well, not necessarily a moderate. I think he was a bit of an economic conservative, but on social issues I would peg him as pretty far to the left. He was definitely a decidedly anti-war candidate.

Thanks for the clarification, really. I thought there was just one McCarthy doing ALL of those things which really confused me because a number of those things were opposites.
Yes, it was a worthwhile experience.
