"the only bad side effect"

Nixon was where the GOP when criminal and has been ever since. I always think, if we had not had Nixon, we might not have had Reagan and we also would not have had the GOP and their revenge impeachment of Bill Clinton.

Other than that, let's hope to God, that the BSers don't try to repeat what happened at the 68 convention because the consequences this time around are much more dire.
