I'd be with Wayne Morris and Ernest Gruening this one.

Though it's always somewhat to amusing to note that they both lost their seats in 1966.

EDIT: Sorry, misread the thread.

I doubt very many people here would have voted against the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution except for the libertarians and other foreign policy isolationists. The idea of the United States losing a war to North Vietnam probably seemed a bit ludicrous at the time.

He would have like George McGovern and Mike Mansfield did. Then when the Vietnam War got worse, then he would have called for withdrawalof all troops by 1968.
