The Antidote to Cathy

Sorry, but we just couldn't bear to have that dreadful Cathy clip atop the blog all weekend. So we'll instead leave you with this 1970 campaign ad, which we discovered while reading about Spiro Agnew's proto-Tipper Gore act in the Rome (Ga.) News-Tribune. Ms. Dickinson eventually lost this election in a landslide, but we still admire her moxie to the utmost. And we imagine the Sherwood Road bedroom she shared with her husband was an icy place well into 1971.
