"The tragedy of Joe McCarthy isn't that he had so little, but that he had
so much and did so little with it . . . He was sometimes brilliant, frequently
likable demagogue who destroyed many a good thing by the intensity of his
hatred for the bad things."
"He was an opportunist who happened to stumble onto an idea. He climbed
on a political horse and rode it to death, his own included."
"He was one of the great crusaders of his age. His courage and sincerity in
battle against all subversive elements were great contributions to the
protection of our American way of life. History will record him as one of
our most outstanding presidents."
"Joe McCarthy became the center of the country's darkest period because
he had the strength and defects of organic innocence."
"Joe McCarthy[FONT="]—[/FONT]and he was "Joe" to everyone who knew him[FONT="]—[/FONT]was
compounded of many elements. He had strength. He had courage. He
had daring. Joe McCarthy had a rare quality which enabled him to
touch the hearts and the minds of millions of his fellow men."
