44. Most admired: Clark. Rocked my world: Sen. Wayne Morse (R, OR)

No idols, just competent, honest leaders. Since Clark is highly competent and honest, he's my most admired (very highly so, the guy could be making millions and he hangs in their for his country).

Sen. Wayne Morse, R, OR in the 60's voted against the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution (along with Ernst Greuning, R, AK) and spoke up like a true warrior on this issue. We actually had 20 or so Dem warriors in the Senate for this stupid war who did the same thing. Bur Morse was a fire-eater. I saw him speak once in CA and he was just amazing. Yes, there were true liberal Republicans at one time.
