>McCarthy
An alcoholic that died a pickled irrelevance. 'Tailgunner Joe', the ultimate embarrassment to the US Marines who was destroyed by his superior - Supreme Commander, then Commander-in-Chief - Dwight D. Eisemhower by he letting that drunken subhuman have enough political rope to hang himself, then when he was politically destroyed, just said 'McCarthyism was McCarthyWASm' and continued being superior to that subhuman by not acknowledging his existence. Also by being the last decent Republican president. Eisenhower was more than right. McCarthy was eternally wrong by merely existing. The only thing he did right was - via booze - ensuring he ceased to exist, with a reputation & credibility that never existed in the first place. McCarthy lived as an embarrassment & a subhuman, and died an insult to humanity & ultimately an ignored nothing. Good.

'In the summer of 1957, a special election was held to fill McCarthy's seat. In the primaries, voters in both parties turned away from McCarthy's legacy. The Republican primary was won by Governor Walter J. Kohler Jr., who called for a clean break from McCarthy's approach; he defeated former Representative Glenn Robert Davis, who charged that President Eisenhower was soft on Communism.
Kohler was defeated in the special general election by Democrat William Proxmire. After assuming his seat, Proxmire did not pay the customary tribute to his predecessor and stated instead that McCarthy was a "disgrace to Wisconsin, to the Senate, and to America." As of 2025, McCarthy is the last Republican to have held, or won election to, Wisconsin's Class 1 Senate seat
