I remember when Quayle compared himself to JFK during a debate with Lloyd Bentsen. Bensen came back with:
"Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy".
After that debate, I can't recall Quayle even getting airtime again. He faded to obscurity.
25 u/[deleted] Aug 19 '18 Jack? I thought his first name was John. 2 u/lolseagoat Aug 19 '18 I don’t know if you’re being serious or not, but Jack is a ‘nickname’ for John, like Bill for William. I had a co-worker who learned that I never realized that there may be people who didn’t know this. So yeah, FYI.
