In 1968, Liddy lost a close [[Republican Party|Republican]] [[primary]] to Hamilton Fish, IV, in New York's 28th congressional district. Presumably had he been nominated and elected, he would have been in the House at the time of the Watergate burglary.

After his 1977 release, Liddy became a [[conservative]] radio host with his syndicated ''G. Gordon Liddy Show'', starting in 1992 and continuing until 2012. His show was known for espousing various conspiracy theories and its rather demeaning treatment of female staff. Despite his Republican affiliation, he was openly close to attorney [[Lanny Davis]], a close associate of the [[Democratic Party|Democrat]] [[Bill Clinton]].
