Since Obama says that the Government shares responsible for every business success, will must also say that the Government shares responsibility for McGovern's business failure. And if so, does the Government owe McGovern money for causing his business to fail?

[Theodore R.]

I don’t think McGovern’s business experience impacted his political thinking at all. He remains an unregenerate anti-Nixon liberal who refuses to acknowledge that Nixon himself was liberal.

[BO Stinkss]

Better yet, invite Joe Biden to speak. The contrast with the other speakers will change a lot of minds.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Yet I will bet McGovern still votes for Emperor Zero.

L O L !

It would be better to run clips of Reagan.

[ScottinVA]

George McGovern.. Tea Party Republican! Sign him up! ;-)

[EternalVigilance]

Even the old McGovern would have been more conservative than the likely 2012 Republican nominee.

I’m serious.

[DUMBGRUNT]

Obama could tell us how he is 1000% behind Biden!!!

(Remember Thomas Eagleton?)

Since leaving office, I've written about public policy from a new perspective: outside looking in. I've come to realize that protecting freedom of choice in our everyday lives is essential to maintaining a healthy civil society.

"The nature of freedom of choice is that some people will misuse their responsibility and hurt themselves in the process. We should do our best to educate them, but without diminishing choice for everyone else."

[Ex-Democrat Dean]

How many Freepers voted for for McGovern for president? First time I was eligible to vote, I did. By time Reagan was up for the second term, I finally got wise, and I have been a Reaganite since!

If conservatives think the Dems only recently went off the left side of the political universe, they should have seen the ‘72 Dem convention. I was a Dem at the time, but I was shocked to see a parade of leftist wackos prance up to the podium and give their deluded visions of what they were going to do to America. I couldn’t vote for McGovern, and I didn’t much like Nixon. But I sure wasn’t sorry McGovern lost. Unfortunately, we have George’s ideological successor in the White House. I doubt he’d have a Damascus-like revelation that McGovern had.

Don't allow a snake into your home.

That is suicide.

Even if McGovern had a friendly regulatory environment for his bed and breakfast, he would have failed. Like most liberals he lacks any sense of good judgement The man is a loser and I would not want him running any business of mine regardless of the regulatory environment.The only lectern this clown should be behind is the one provided for calling the numbers at the bingo game in his retirement community.
