Well, I think that people forgot that the Soviets were our allies in WWII, when it was ok to like them. People who expressed favorable views before that time may have been doing so in the context of that relationship. It was only post-WWII that the Soviets became our hated enemies. Much of what McCarthy dredged up was circa 1945 and before ("are you or were you ever a member of the Communist party?").

So, McClellan had to resign in '53, but did ultimately find work again in '61. A long time to go without food on the table. Once again proving that McCarthy was indeed evil. The evilness consumed him, and he died a deluded alcoholic. Guess that's what they call Karma, eh?
