Eagleton cites Nixon image edge and McGovern factors in 1972 loss
Senator Eagleton says his dismissal as McGovern's running mate was only one rock in Nixon's landslide victory. He argues Nixon's political skill and McGovern's radical image were larger factors, not his own exit. Eagleton predicts Kennedy will rally the party toward the political center and urges rebuilding labor and ethnic base for 1976.
