who/what is (a) McGovern? :we don't get it:

btw, nice hat and guitar

George McGovern was the Democratic nominee in 1972, who ran against Richard Nixon at the height of the Viet Nam War. In some ways, he garnered the same kind of idealistic supporters that Dean had at the beginning of his campaign. Like today, the country was divided over the war. Had Watergate been revealed a little earlier, Nixon would have been toast. McGovern lost in a landslide, despite his principled and moralistic call to America. Look up his acceptance speech on being chosen as the candidate called "Come Home America."

And a tip of the hat to you from the Cactus man on the compliment..

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
