senator mcgovern had hinged his l~~xxxx~~cxx whole campaign on oppostion to the vietnam war, ~~xxxxxxxxxxxx~~ hoping to pursuade americans of its immorality and awakenong in them a sense of outrage and shame, he tried to demonstrate that the continuing american presnece in vietnam, the bombing and the ~~xxxxxx~~ suport of what he denounced as a corrupt dictatorship was an indication of ~~xxx~~ a ~~xxxxx~~ moral collapse in the ~~x~~ united states. He did not balme the people but the nixon administration / but the people did not ~~xxxxx~~ respond to his appeals, ironically yesterday morning he voted here in support of a local ~~xxxxx~~ proposition to outlwa the killing of a small bird known as the @mourning dove@ last night, as the nixon landslide gathered momentum that is precisely what heorge mcgovern became—a mourning dove.

i ~~xxxxx~~ asked him if the worst happened whether he would run again and he said: @emphantically: no i will not. i shall stay in the senate but xxx someone else will have to carry on what I began.@

frewuently in the last two weeks, senator mcgovern had spoken of a young p black man who ~~xxxxxx~~ predicted that the election was going to break his heart because he was going to g find out that the american people were not as high minded as he thought they were/typically, mr. mcgovern challenged this view, ~~x~~ saying that he believed in the goodness and decency of the people and that they would respond to their own consciences.

but the election did break his heart after all. he thought he saw ~~xxx~~ faces glowing with hope xx that the country would aim for higher standards, yearing for peace and an edn to the domestic anguish. but the voters turned their backs on him.
