Hi,

I was wondering how much percentage did Paul McCloskey get in the Iowa caucus against Richard Nixon?

Was McClosky liberal or moderate?  IIRC there was one more liberal candidate and a more conservative than Nixon candidate, but with all the things going on in 1972 neither one made a big splash at the time.
