Aiken loses touch over Nixon Cox stance in Watergate era
In a harsh critique, Tim Powers argues Vermont Senator Aiken has altered since supporting Nixon’s move to end Archibald Cox’s Watergate probe. The piece traces Aiken’s career, his party loyalties, and questions whether age and judgment impact his bid for re election in 1974. It highlights Aiken’s prior independence, his scandal tied to cabinet turnover, and calls for voters to weigh honor integrity and character against experience.
