Jackie O nixed Nixon

I’ve been accused of “burying the lead” in my story Sunday about “Nixon’s Secrets,” Roger Stone’s new book.

While focusing on the allegations about Hillary Clinton’s stint on the Watergate committee, I mentioned in passing that Nixon had once hit on Jacqueline Kennedy.

“She told Tennessee Williams that Nixon put the moves on her while both were in the House and Jack was away for the weekend,” Stone said, adding, “LBJ tried to lay her too, after JFK was slain.”

No wonder so many more books have been written about Jackie than about Richard Milhous Nixon.
