Wait a minute. Wasn’t this guy the crummier of Nixon’s two nominees who were rejected by the Senate.
Yes.
Didn’t he make a statement in favor of “white supremacy” when he was running for an office like 20 years before?
Yes.
In addition, he was involved in some scheme to lease a city-owned golf course to a private club for $1 a year. Plus, he lied and said he couldn’t remember the details.
And finally, wasn’t this the guy about whom a Senator famously said “there are a lot of mediocre judges and people and lawyers. They are entitled to a little representation” ? ? ?
Yes on all counts!
But sometimes people rise to a job and becomes a better person.
Let’s say Harrold does this. In particular, let’s suppose he becomes a centrist on the vital issue of school desegregation and helps steer the Supreme Court through the 1970s.
