McGovern Myth: Populist Image Fades Among Elite Support
The piece argues McGovern’s base is elite and academic, not populist. It notes redistribution plans faded after analysis, while supporters cluster in Northeast and affluent suburbs, with Kennedy-era aides and Camelot figures seeking influence again. The critique labels McGovernism as a vehicle to widen minority cliques, then marginalize yokels.
