Looks like scientists have fled the GOP en masse.

Nixon is what happened to it.

If you like the drug war and unconstitutional executive agencies, then yeah, he was a great president besides his criminality.

If those and the Watergate Scandal are his only failures, his list of successes vastly outweighs hem.

One of his more memorable accomplishments was capitalizing on Soviet heavy handedness to bring China into the U.S. sphere of influence. Although that relationship has subsequently been turned against us, Nixon isn't responsible for the failures of his successors.

Publicly it disappeared after liberals couldn't stand him, and conservatives wanted to distance themselves from him.

As long as I don't have to drink the refuse in my water off your property I think it is a good thing.
