The worst part about Watergate was how anti-tax groups were targeted for IRS audits at a rate ten times greater than the national average. Remmeber when the commissioner flipped Congress the bird?
Then there was the illegal gun-running operation that cost a border agent his life. Nixon also slept through an attack on American embassy, then perpetuated a cover story for months, misleading the victim's families and the American people. And then there was the collection of everyone's phone calls by the NSA. That Nixon was a real monster.

The only Watergate-Benghazi (F&F, IRS, ...) comparisons that interest me are the outcomes.
The guys who ran Nixon out of office were pros. We’ll see how Boehner and McConnell stack up.
