I agree with Jane Galt in this article where she writes that Watergate and Vietnam don't seem to be news anymore. I think alot of this Mark Felt=Deep Throat stuff is just Baby Boomers having their last hurrah.
One last dance before Watergate and the Teapot Dome Scandal will hold the same place in our minds. It will be something taught in class about long-dead guys doing some stuff that was bad but doesn't effect us today. One day Watergate will simply be a test question on the great High School History Quiz in the Sky and will no longer be the defining event of the 20th century or whatever people are calling it now.
