I am not quite as cynical as the person quoted by the late San Francisco Chronicle columnist Herb Caen, who said that Richard Nixon
[B][I]deserved to be re-elected because he was the perfect representation of everything this country stands for
The most vicious, mean, petty corrupt and venal man to ever hold the office...
Though some people said he looked like a Used Car Salesman
(but George McGovern looked like someone who bought one

)
And Hunter S. Thompson,
(Fear & Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72) described him as Utterly humorless--the only thing that Nixon would imagine as funny would be a handicapped voter who wanted to vote Democratic but couldn't reach the lever on the voting machine
"I am not a crook" Richard M. Nixon
"The nattering nabobs of negativism" V.P. Spiro Agnew (before he left in disgrace)
