Are there any public figures still active from Nixon's first term? I'd think that the feared Hoover files would be largely obsoleted by most of the targets having expired of extreme old age, liver failure, and general decrepitude. Hoover was chucked out of office a week before I was born!
Hillary's working on that liver thing, and she was a Watergate baby lawyer, which is Nixon second term... I guess Bill Moyers and Ramsey Clark are still alive. There are a few other Johnson cabinet members rotting away in retirement communities somewhere, W. Marvin Watson and Alan Stephenson Boyd... Henry Kissinger is still hanging on by his fingernails. The ubiquitous George Shultz. Melvin Laird is still alive? I'll be damned. A couple of Nixon nonentities like Peter George Peterson and Frederick Dent... assholes like John Dean are cockroaches, they live forever. Rumsfeld is around but nobody cares anymore.
Oh, Biden. He's post-Hoover too, took office in 1973, and was a nobody corporate lawyer before he was elected senator. The legend holds that the rest of the Delaware Bar took a census and chose their most annoying member to ship off to Washington.
Hoovers files are the generic name for the dirty tricks files the FBI kept going up to the present day. I am sure Mark Felt and all the rest kept doing the same thing. I bet when the Clintons were in charge they copied everything they could for leverage.

The one on the left looks like Lavoine.
Yeah, she's going. The Choom Gang has it all. They're just going to drag it out.
Holy cow- how did they find me?
