| − | |This "comedy" fails to be a political satire as it fails to lampoon both sides of the coin and supports [[George McGovern]] at every turn. It was released during the 1972 election year as a smear campaign against [[Richard Nixon]] and his conservative colleagues. Conservative star [[James Stewart]] refused to star in it for that reason. | + | |This "comedy" fails to be a political satire as it fails to lampoon both sides of the coin and supports [[George McGovern]] at every turn.
