None of the politicians running in the U.S election are really left, just not so far right as the others. Come to Canada and partake of the NDP and Bloc Quebecois and you will come to truly understand what left really is. As for the Nixon flop-sweat disaster, I believe he was recovering from the flu or something and was in no real condition to appear on TV, while Kennedy was in good health and just came back from a condition perfectly refreshed. That was the decider though and one of the most interesting upsets in U.S political history.
