Herman Talmadge Will Be Our Next President, I was told.

I came across these pictures of Herman Talmadge (1913-2002)  that I took of Herman on his last campaign trail in 1980 in downtown Marietta.  Herman was an old south politician.  

Although I appreciated his intense questions on  the Watergate Judicial Panel, I heard a lot of crooked things about him also.. He had a saying he told the press:  "I don't care what you say about me, just spell my name right."   And it worked many years.  But the 1980 election told him it was time to go.
