RIP Eugene J. McCarthy 1916-2005


The BBC has reported the passing of Eugene J. McCarthy, the former Senator of Minnesota and candidate for the President.

Wikipedia has a brief biography of the Senator, one of the leading politicians who opposed the Vietnam War.

His primary challenge for the Presidency in 1968 is considered to be a major reason for Lyndon Johnson deciding not to seek re-election.
