The thing that people forget about ole Joe is that he was factually right. The US State Dept had been infiltrated by Communist agents. After the fall of the USSR, a lot of "secret" stuff came to light that verified much of Joe's charges.
His manner was poor, and he looked bad on TV, and as noted above liberals DO keep score, and eventually settle accounts.
