Saddest think I can't think to say is that 1) he lived long enough to be somehow perceived -- by a matter of raw contrast -- as a plausible, proportioned Republican leader and 2) to know that his post-Watergate belief in the restoration of an imperial presidency led to our current national hell.

we just take it for granted, that R's will lie about and demean "blue states". Imagine any D so consistently denigrating red states. Fox News would have a collective aneurism.
