        .@BeschlossDC Hard for a dishonest, morally contemptible man to endorse a man of integrity like Sen. McGovern.

        thanks for the LBJ newsprint. You cut off his Dolph Briscoe endorsement. I had a DB lunchbox as a kid.

        Not surprising, McGovern was a pain to LBJ on the war. Plus there was a Kennedy relative on the ticket.
