Even Nixon regretted choosing Agnew and he would admit it... Humphrey chose well with Muskie. (Also considered Fred Harris and Daniel Inoyue). Nixon chose a guy who came off as a real jerk and turned out to be a real life criminal in Agnew.

i saw this in US history and i thought...if they replaced agnew with palin this would be even better....lol

Sad thing is in the context of the time this totally backfired; made Middle Americns feel like they were being "laughed at'

I disagree; Agnew was an intelligent man, and an eloquent speaker. The problem, as I see it, is that all too much like Richard Nixon, he thrived on creating enemies.
As for Palin?? I've wondered at times if she and Dan Quayle were related; but, at least she cold see Russia from her house!!
Rich Little had Nixon down to a tee, and Tina Fey did Sarah Palin better than Sarah Palin did Sarah Palin!!

Agnew played the bad cop to Nixon's good cop if you can imagine that...
Go look up his "nattering nabobs of negativism"
speech.

LMAO!

Well, a lot of it was that he was a completely obscure governor who seemed lacking in the experience one would want as president (contrast his experience with Ed Muskie's in 1968, and there's no contest).

Take Agnew out and insert Palin. Classic

One gets the impression that Agnew was the Dan Quayle of his day, but it would be helpful to have some idea upon what basis people derived such an (apparently) derisive attitude towards then-Gov. Agnew. Most people wouldn't have a very strong opinion about the Governor of Maryland, after all. He must have said or done something to inspire such feelings (all the Agnew quotes I know of are from after he took office).
