Without the Watergate Baby Class how is the seniority system evolving? Obviously it all kinda went to hell, good intentions style, but there is still major pressure from Mo Udall and friends ongoing because they correctly diagnosed the problem albeit without the cudgel of the Babies I’m not sure how long it takes.
Without public television broadcast hearings on Watergate for years, does Congress successfully resist transparency pressure and remain secretive? No bad thing in muzzling the bad faith actors climbing the ranks of the Republican Party, the Emperor of the Moon deliberately breaking Congress to win power has a far tougher job if he can’t lie on camera all day.
Yeah yeah I re-read the Politico Magazine piece on it lol.
How the ‘Watergate Babies’ Broke American Politics by John A. Lawrence. Anybody
read his book on the issue?
