McCarthy Attacks Muskie Over Vietnam War Record
Former senator Eugene J. McCarthy leveled a jab at Edmund S. Muskie over Muskie’s past Vietnam War support. He argued there is little difference on the war issue among several 1972 contenders and warned against voting for a candidate merely for admitting past error. Muskie dismissed the remark, saying he has apologized for 1968 positions but it does not define his current campaign.
