Kenneth E. Reeves ’72 and David P. Maher—the two councillors seen as most precariously positioned to reclaim their seats, because they finished last among the councillors in 1999’s election—took extremely different tacks in their closing remarks.
On the other end, 12-year council veteran Reeves talked about voter participation. Pundits have said Reeves, who previously had a strong base of black voters, could lose ground to Simmons. There are also other incumbents from his neighborhood.
“I wonder why so few people are voting,” Reeves said in his closing remarks. “We seem to have become very self-satisfied in Cambridge.”
If anyone comes off worse in this history than Nixon, it is Kissinger. In Reeves' account, the former National Security Adviser is a grotesque monument to ambition, insecurity and deception. Kissinger whined constantly to Nixon about his own enemies in the Administration, threatened repeatedly to resign unless stroked more thoroughly...
To some extent, Nixon rebuilt his public image after the disgrace of his resignation. But Reeves takes us back, often minute by minute, into the sewer of the Nixon presidency, and deepens our understanding of just how pathological it really was.
