	Thomas Eagleton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Thomas Francis Eagleton, LL.B., (born September 4, 1929) is a former United States Senator from Missouri.
		Graduating from Amherst College in 1950, Eagleton served as Missouri's Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor, won a U.S. Senate seat in 1968, and sought the Vice Presidency in 1972.
		Although many Americans supported Eagleton's candidacy, his vice-presidential hopes evaporated when it was revealed shortly after the party convention that he had been hospitalized on three occasions for depression and had undergone electroshock therapy.

	United States presidential election, 1972 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		McGovern chose Thomas Eagleton as a vice presidential candidate, but Eagleton had difficulty campaigning due to widespread media criticism about his initial failure to disclose his receiving electroshock therapy for depression, and was eventually replaced by Sargent Shriver.
		Even though Nixon was not a popular incumbent president in 1972, most of the clandestine activities later leading to the Watergate scandal were not well known in the press yet, and the infighting that divided the Democrats would ensure that McGovern would be defeated.
		Because he had alienated many powerful Democrats, because of difficulties with his running mate, Thomas Eagleton (who he eventually dropped and replaced with Sargent Shriver), and because of a successful Republican campaign to paint him as unacceptably radical, McGovern suffered a landslide defeat of 61%–38% to sitting President Richard Nixon.

	Washingtonpost.com Special Report: Clinton Accused
		Democratic nominee George S. McGovern's presidential hopes virtually evaporated when it was revealed shortly after the party convention that his newly chosen vice presidential running mate, Missouri U.S. Sen. Thomas F. Eagleton, had been hospitalized on three occasions for depression and had undergone electroshock therapy.
		Eagleton had kept the explosive information from McGovern at the convention, but too many Missouri politicians and others knew about his secret for it to be kept under wraps.
		Under pressure from McGovern and many senior Democrats, Eagleton withdrew from the ticket, but not before McGovern had swallowed a suicide pill by declaring himself to be "1,000 percent" behind his doomed partner.

		Thomas was given command of Union forces in eastern Kentucky, and he distinguished himself with a key victory over the Confederates at Logan's Cross Roads (or Mill Springs, or Fishing Creek) (19 Jan 1862).
		Thomas scored two huge victories at Franklin and Nashville as Hood desperately flung his army at the Yankees, resulting in the near disintegration of the once great Rebel force.

		Posted by undisclosedlocation on Mar-01-03 at 05:09 PM I think Hunter indicated that Eagleton was always a disaster waiting to happen (alcohol was the big problem) and McGovern was consistently lied to by Mo. pols and reporters about his background.
		The Eagleton story certainly cost McG votes and put his credibility into question since he had publically said he was "1000 percent" behind Eagleton only to buck under the pressure a few days later and ask Eagleton to resign from the ticket.
		Eagleton was way down on the VP list, the decision had to be made in a rush, and Eagleton deceived McGovern.
