Any leftist would.

Humphrey was a good man but is completely overshadowed by Eugene McCarthy from the same time,  and who should have been the nominee in 1968. HHH was far too close to party bosses and owed too many favors.

Kennedy was a pathetic opportunist of a presidential candidate in 1968. With hindsight I would have definitely voted for HHH in the 1968 general election but at the time I wouldn't have been able to help myself from abstaining out of sheer disgust and disappointment.
