As amazing as Humphrey was, Scoop Jackson was even better.  A damn shame more Democrats aren't like him today.

Obama High's debate team:

"Now let me be clear...I...I...um...uh...now let me be clear.  I strongly condemn the affirmative in the strongest possible terms, and I am closely monitoring their arguments.  Let me be clear on this."

A man who adhered to Scoop Jackson's political ideology was elected to the Presidency quite recently, actually, in 2004.

George W. Bush was far to the right of Scoop Jackson. They're not even comparable. Jackson was a New Dealer, Bush was the product of the New Right.

It's still fat and easy up on bankers hill
Up on bankers hill the party's going strong
Down here below we're shackled and drawn

Jackson is basically in the same group as Bush, Cheney, Graham, Lieberman, Lugar, McCain, Powell, Rice, Rumsfeld, and Moynihan.
