Nixon was a bad loser. He hated losing worse than death, and that is why I enjoyed him. We were both football fans, both addicts; and on some days, nothing else mattered.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Nixon was a crook, of course, but he was also a rabid football fan - and he knew the game, which still astounds me, but I have always had a soft spot for him because of it.
The trouble with Nixon is that he's a serious politics junkie. He's totally hooked and like any other junkie, he's a bummer to have around, especially as President.
I liked Nixon fine, but Nixon was not a partier.
That was my choice at that time, and I still say Nixon was a great president. A very beautiful and wise man.
While he was president, it was popular to be a Nixon hater.
I have tender feelings for Nixon because everybody has warm feelings about their childhood. Actually, I didn't like the Watergate trials 'cause they interrupted 'The Munsters.'
The reason I'm a Nixonite is because of his indestructibility and resilience. He never quit.
Kennedy was a lot of fun, always. He had something going on. But not Nixon.
Nixon was no more a saint than he was a great president.
My dad likes to tease me over this. We weren't there at Fenway, and it wasn't a consequential game, but Trot Nixon let a ball go through his legs, and from that moment on, I hated Trot Nixon. Really irrational. Based in nothing. But did not like him.
