Introduction:

You know, Nixon was always a dirty son-of-a bitch. Anyone with a decent amount of knowledge about the inner workings of his campaign and admin. knew that he was willing to go to most lengths if it suited him.

It was after I resigned as Deputy [White House] Counsel that I found out, from an associate, that he had this whole 'plumbers' unit who burgled into offices and tapped phones and shit. And by God, now that I think about it, it's a good thing that at the time, no one found out...




Chapter One:

I remember Kansas City. It was a really hot summer, and the Arena was more packed Miami in `68. But maybe that was just how I felt.

It was a really long primary season. It was just Ron and Ford, and it couldn't have been closer. But I didn't think we'd lose. I mean, for fuck's sake, the guy was the pushover's pushover, the House Minority Leader. I told Ron, "he's lucky to get to the Convention."

We won with nine delegates. Nine. One pundit from wherever said that it took my absolute willpower to restrain myself from lashing out at those bastards, and he was... right.
