Just outside of Mitchell, South Dakota, the home of the World Famous Corn Palace, we saw a sign for the George McGovern museum. McGovern was born in Mitchell. Unfortunately we are on a rather tight schedule and we were not able to stop in. In 1972 I gave just about every free hour I had to McGovern's campaign, and I look back on that as something in which I can take pride.
We are now in a Day's Inn in Waterloo, Iowa. Trump is appearing about 30 miles to the south giving one of his speeches to fire up his base. I wonder how many of those supporters will be proud of what they did 40 years from now.
