[Verginius Rufus]

Watergate was unnecessary--Nixon was going to win anyway. It was about turning a 55%-45% landslide into a 60%-40% landslide and involved some illegal wiretapping and some other penny ante dirty tricks.

The Clinton/Obama tactics in the 2016 election were far worse--using the agencies of the federal government to try to ensure that the Democrats would keep the White House (so that Obama's policies would continue). If their tactics had succeeded all future Presidential elections would have been Venezuela-style elections.

Mr. Nixon neither sent those guys to the Watergate to get stuff on Dems, nor did he even know anything at all about the whole operation!

Damned stoolie and liar, Dean, set it up, to get the little black book, which contained his soon to be wife's name, when she was a high paid hooker!
