Mr. McGovern, the last insurgent Democrat to run for president on an antiwar platform, sees parallels between the 1972 race and the current campaign. And in the candidacy of Howard Dean, he hears echoes of his own. ...... More than three decades ago, the presidential candidacies of two Democratic senators — Mr. McGovern, from South Dakota, and Eugene J. McCarthy, from Minnesota — transformed their party, making it more liberal and inviting accusations that it was antimilitary and too dovish in foreign policy. Mr. McGovern won the 1972 nomination but was trounced by President Richard M. Nixon in November. Mr. McCarthy drove President Lyndon B. Johnson from the 1968 race but lost the nomination to Hubert H. Humphrey. nytimes.com
