McCarthy told his Wheeling audience that while he did not have the names of the 205 mentioned in the Byrnes letter, he did have the names of 57 who were either members of or loyal to the Communist Party.
McCarthy was not being inconsistent in his use of the numbers; the 57 and 81 were part of the 205 mentioned in the Byrnes letter.
McCarthy also exposed scores of others who may not have been identified as communists, but who certainly were causing harm to national security from their posts in the State Department, the Pentagon, the Army, key defense plants, and the Government Printing Office.

Last Monday, The Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) reported that the Australian Ambassador John McCarthy had stated that Wiranto had 'broad knowledge' of the attacks in East Timor and that there was an international expectation that he should be punished.
Then, last Tuesday (21/11/2000) McCarthy and fellow embassy staff were approached by a group of 10 - 15 East Timorese refugees in Makassar, South Sulawesi, and several of the party, though not McCarthy, were struck.
By Thursday, however, Wiranto said the Ambassador had never made the comments in the first place and that he wished to alert the Indonesian public about the perils of the new paradigms of psychological warfare and information warfare.

On campus, ex-ambassador John McCarthy’s talk entitled “Dealing with Terrorism in the Moslem World” was advertised as a way to learn about alternatives to military action, and many students attended expecting to hear a broad diplomatic perspective on the current situation.
McCarthy described himself as a “reluctant admirer of what’s going on,” and expressed support of further military action in Afghanistan.
Students asked for McCarthy’s perspective on the sanctions on Iraq, the relevance of oil interests in the Middle East, past Soviet and American involvement in Afghanistan, the support of Afghani rebel groups by the US government, and the future of the Middle East.

When McCarthy scored 42 percent to Johnsons 49 percent, it was clear that deep division existed between Democrats on the war issue.
By this time, Johnson had become inextricably defined by Vietnam, and this demonstration of divided support within his party meant his reelection (only four years after winning the highest percentage of the popular vote in modern history) was unlikely.
