WATERGATE @ 43

Forty three years ago Frank Willis was doing his job as a Security Guard. On this night he came across a piece of tape that marked an entry into the Democratic Party headquarters at the Watergate. The Republican committee to elect President Nixon already had the goods on the Dem Chairman Larry O’Brien and planned to use it in an attack ad. But and this is the stupid thing here, they wanted to know what dirt O’Brien had on them. He pretty much had nothing except the conduct of the Vietnam War against them. That was it. However after the break in all hell broke loose and Nixon,  though re-elected in 1972 was gone by the summer of ’74.
