Wasn't Wallace recovering from a paralyzing gunshot wound in 1972?

Anyway, Wallace wasn't exactly a team player for the Democrats, and I doubt he'd serve as running mate to the single senator most responsible for the Civil Rights Act. Balance is good, but a Humphrey-Wallace ticket has too much cognitive dissonance.

Also, Tom Eagleton had electroshock therapy multiple times, and I still think he was saner and more grounded in reality than George Wallace.
