Eagleton Defends Health History At Senate Meeting
Eight men attended the Marble Room session as Eagleton, flanked by Sen. Nelson, opened with a 15 minute defense of his three hospital stints for nervous exhaustion and fatigue. He warned the issue would fade with time, while McGovern argued the real factor was the national campaign and the president. Eagleton said he would crisscross the country to move past the medical history, and McGovern cited the broader campaign impact.
